Hello,

While experimenting with udev rules, I found a need to be able to pass
file-like objects containing udev rules to the udev-service. This patch
implements a `file->udev-rule' method that does just that.

Subject: [PATCH] services: base: Add file->udev-rule function.

This function allows passing a file-like object to the udev service.

* gnu/services/base.scm (file->udev-rule): New function.
* doc/guix.texi (Base Services): Document it.
