Subject: system: vm: Do not register-closures when cross-building to the Hurd.

This supports cross-building building a vm-image for the Hurd, running a
native qemu.

* gnu/system/vm.scm (qemu-image)[register-closures?]: Default to #f when
cross-compiling to the Hurd.  Only create sql-schema when actually registering
closures.
