linux-initrd: Add virtio modules to '%base-initrd-modules'.
Fixes a regression in installation tests, whereby 'guix system init'
would report that virtio modules are missing for the target devices.
In practice virtio modules were always available since 'base-initrd' was
always called with #:virtio? #t.  This commit simply moves them to
'%base-initrd-modules' so that 'guix system' knows they're available.
