vm: 'iso9660-image' produces a single-file output.

* gnu/system/vm.scm (expression->derivation-in-linux-vm): Add
  #:single-file-output? and pass it to 'load-in-linux-vm'.
(iso9660-image): Pass #:single-file-output? to
'expression->derivation-in-linux-vm'.
* gnu/build/vm.scm (load-in-linux-vm): Add #:single-file-output? and
honor it.
