Since #<eof> can't be read.

* gnu/build/marionette.scm (wait-for-file): Return "" if file is empty.

Partially-Fixes: https://issues.guix.gnu.org/57827

marionette: Make it easier to debug REPL read failures.

Log the remaining contnet written to the REPL, so that there's more to go on
than:

  socket:5:14: Unknown # object: "#<"

* gnu/build/marionette.scm (marionette-eval): Catch exceptions from read and
log the remainder of the content from the REPL.

system: install: Do not load amdgpu in the installer image.

* gnu/system/install.scm (installation-os): Add amdgpu to
modprobe.blacklist.
