services: %desktop-services: Setuid root NTFS and NFS mount helpers.
Fixes <https://issues.guix.info/39670>. Combined with commit def6e2ae46, this allows unprivileged users to mount file systems marked with the "user" option. It adds less than 4 MiB to the closure of the lightweight-desktop.tmpl operating system template. * gnu/services/desktop.scm (%desktop-services): Extend the setuid-program-service-type service with the 'mount.nfs' and 'mount.nfs-3g' programs. Reported-by: Nathan Dehnel <ncdehnel@gmail.com>
