* gnu/system.scm (<operating-system>)[groups]: Change default to just
  the 'root' group.
  [sudoers]: New field.
  (etc-directory): Add #:sudoers parameter.  Add 'sudoers' to the
  file union.
  (operating-system-etc-directory): Pass #:sudoers to 'etc-directory'.
  (%setuid-programs): Add 'sudo'.
  (%sudoers-specification): New variable.
* gnu/system/linux.scm (base-pam-services): Add 'sudo'.
