maint: Provide the configuration file in the VM image.
This fixes a bug introduced in 362bcdb1b076c8c46f71781add56dfbe532736dc
whereby the VM image would no longer contain /etc/config.scm, contrary
to what the manual says.
Reported by dbdude on #guix.
* Makefile.am (release): Pass '--save-provenance' to 'guix system
vm-image'.
* doc/guix.texi (Running Guix in a VM): Adjust file name accordingly.
