[bug#62298] [PATCH v4 4/5] services: mpd: Use user-account (resp. user-group) for user (resp. group) fields.

[Bruno Victal <mirai@makinata.eu>]

Deprecate using strings for these fields and prefer user-account
(resp. user-group) instead to avoid duplication within account-service-type.

Fixes #61570 <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/61570>.

* gnu/services/audio.scm (mpd-serialize-user-account, mpd-serialize-user-group)
(mpd-user-sanitizer, mpd-group-sanitizer): New procedure.
(%mpd-user, %mpd-group): New variable.
(mpd-configuration)[user, group]: Set value type to
user-account (resp. user-group).
(mpd-shepherd-service): Adapt for user-account values in user field.
(mpd-accounts): Adapt for user-account (resp. user-group) in
user (resp. group) field.

* doc/guix.texi (Audio Services): Update documentation.
