* gnu/packages/video.scm (avidemux)[source]: Add patch to install to lib
directory instead of lib64 or lib32 depending on the architecture.

* gnu-system.am (dist_patch_DATA): Register it.
* gnu/build/vm.scm (<partition>): New record type.
(fold2): New procedure.

(initialize-partition, root-partition-initializer): New procedures.
(initialize-hard-disk): Remove #:system-directory, #:disk-image-size,
#:file-system-type, #:file-system-label, #:closures, #:copy-closures?,
#:bootable?, and #:register-closures? parameters. Add #:partitions.
Rewrite to use 'initialize-partition' for each item of PARTITIONS.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (expression->derivation-in-linux-vm): Add (guix records)
to #:modules default value.
(qemu-image): Adjust accordingly.
Based on discussions with Rohan Prinja <rohan.prinja@gmail.com>.

(write-interface, values->interface, unfold-interface-list,
network-interfaces, free-ifaddrs): New procedures.
(ifaddrs): New C struct.
(%struct-ifaddrs-type, %sizeof-ifaddrs): New macros.
* tests/syscalls.scm ("network-interfaces returns one or more interfaces",
"network-interfaces returns \"lo\""): New tests.
* guix/build/syscalls.scm (alignof*, align): New macros.

read/write a value of TYPE0.

FAMILY is neither AF_INET nor AF_INET6.
