installer: Recommend 'ntp-service-type' for non-graphical systems.
We had several bug reports with a root cause of "the clock was incorrect" from users who used the installer to install a non-graphical Guix System. * gnu/installer/services.scm (%system-services): Add the ntp-service-type. * gnu/installer/newt/services.scm (run-system-administration-cbt-page): New variable. (run-services-page): Use run-system-administration-cbt-page when not installing a desktop. * gnu/installer/tests.scm (choose-services): Add and use a choose-misc-service? procedure. * gnu/tests/install.scm (installation-target-os-for-gui-tests)<services>: Add ntp-service-type.
