* gnu/packages/python-web.scm (python-openid, python-terminado)
(python-geventhttpclient, python-cachecontrol, python-webencodings)
(python-s3transfer)[arguments]: Substitute INVOKE for SYSTEM* and end
phases with #t.
* guix/scripts/system.scm (check-mapped-devices): Take an OS instead of
a list of <mapped-device>. Pass #:needed-for-boot? and #:initrd-modules
to CHECK.
(check-initrd-modules): New procedure.
(perform-action): Move 'check-mapped-devices' call first. Add call to
'check-initrd-modules'.
* gnu/system/mapped-devices.scm (check-device-initrd-modules): New
procedure.
(check-luks-device): Add #:initrd-modules and #:needed-for-boot?. Use
them to call 'check-device-initrd-modules'.
* gnu/system.scm (<operating-system>)[initrd-modules]: New field.
(operating-system-initrd-file): Pass #:linux-modules to 'make-initrd'.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (default-initrd-modules): New procedure.
(%base-initrd-modules): New macro.
(base-initrd): Add #:linux-modules and honor it.
* gnu/system/install.scm (embedded-installation-os): Use
'initrd-modules' instead of 'initrd'.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (%raid-root-os): Likewise.
* doc/guix.texi (operating-system Reference): Add 'initrd-modules'.
(Initial RAM Disk): Document it. Adjust example to not use
#:extra-modules.
This change allows overriding the home directory of all filesystem mappings to
help hide the identity of the calling user in a container.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix environment)[--container]: Mention --user.
[--user]: Add item.
* guix/scripts/environment.scm (show-help): Add --user.
(%options): Add --user.
(launch-environment/container) Add 'user' parameter. Update doc. Override
'user-mappings' using 'override-user-mappings'. Consider override for chdir.
(mock-passwd, user-override-home, overrid-euser-dir): New procedures.
(guix-environment): Disallow --user without --container. Provide user to
'launch-environment/container'.
* tests/guix-environment.sh: Add user test.

This change is motivated by attempts to run programs (like GNU IceCat) within
containers. The 'fontconfig' program, for example, is configured explicitly
to check ~/.guix-profile for additional fonts.
There were no existing container tests in 'tests/guix-environment.sh', but I
added one anyway for this change.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix environment): Add '--link-profile'.
* guix/scripts/environment.scm (show-help): Add '--link-profile'.
(%options): Add 'link-profile' as '#\P', assigned to 'link-profile?'.
(link-environment): New procedure.
(launch-environment/container): Use it when 'link-profile?'.
[link-profile?]: New parameter.
(guix-environment): Leave when '--link-prof' but not '--container'. Add
'#:link-profile?' argument to 'launch-environment/container' application.
* tests/guix-environment-container.sh: New '--link-profile' test.
