services: cuirass: Improve simple-cuirass-services.
Instead of returning multiple services in simple-cuirass-services, rely on the instantiate-missing-services procedure to instantiate postgresql and postgresql-role-service-type when missing. Turn simple-cuirass-services procedure into simple-cuirass-configuration->specs, that takes a simple-cuirass-configuration record and returns a Cuirass specification. Suggested-by: Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org> * gnu/services/cuirass.scm (%default-cuirass-config): Remove it. (simple-cuirass-services): Rename it to ... (simple-cuirass-configuration->specs): ... this procedure. * gnu/tests/cuirass.scm (cuirass-services): Remove postgresql and postgresql-role services that are automatically instantiated. (simple-cuirass-service): New variable. (%cuirass-simple-test): Adapt it to use simple-cuirass-configuration->specs instead of simple-cuirass-services. * doc/guix.texi (Simple Cuirass): Update it.
