file-systems: Add a 'mount?' field.
Fixes <http://bugs.gnu.org/22176>. Reported by Florian Paul Schmidt <mista.tapas@gmx.net>. * gnu/system/file-systems.scm (<file-system>)[mount?]: New field. (file-system->spec): Adjust accordingly. * gnu/services/base.scm (file-system-dmd-service): Return the empty list when FILE-SYSTEM has 'mount?' set to false. (user-processes-service): Select the subset of FILE-SYSTEMS that matches 'file-system-mount?'. * doc/guix.texi (File Systems): Document it.
