(system-disk-image): Define 'root-uuid' and use it for the root file
system. Pass it to 'iso9660-image' and 'qemu-image'.
Conceptually a UUID is just a bytevector. However, there's software out
there such as GRUB that relies on the string representation of different
UUID types (e.g., the string representation of DCE UUIDs differs from
that of ISO-9660 UUIDs, even if they are actually bytevectors of the
same length). This new <uuid> record type allows us to preserve
information about the type of UUID so we can eventually convert it to a
string using the right representation.
* gnu/system/uuid.scm (<uuid>): New record type.
