This patch is targeted against wip-guix-home branch.

It's not a part of any patch series to make sure it will get enough attention,
because it's most unpure part of the Guix Home and operates on user's files.

+;;; symlink-manager cares about configuration files: it backups files
+;;; created by user, removes symlinks and directories created by
+;;; previous generation, and creates new directories and symlinks to
+;;; configs according to content of files/ directory of current home
+;;; environment generation (created by home-files-service).
