services: xorg: Remove WindowMaker as a default fallback.
* gnu/services/xorg.scm (xinitrc)[builder](system-profile) (user-profile): New variables. (xsession-command, find-session): New procedures. When FALLBACK-SESSION is #f, find a valid session at run time. * doc/guix.texi (X Window): Adjust accordingly, and insist that one or more window managers must be installed.
