[bug#59866] [PATCH v6 2/3] services: mpd: Refactor MPD service.

[Bruno Victal <mirai@makinata.eu>]

Refactor mpd-service-type to support additional mpd.conf directives
and move activation-service-extension into service constructor.

* gnu/services/audio.scm
(mpd-plugin, mpd-partition): New record.

(mpd-serialize-boolean, mpd-serialize-field): Integrate serializers
into a single procedure for alist interop.

(mpd-plugin?, mpd-partition?, list-of-string?, list-of-symbol?)
(list-of-mpd-plugin?, list-of-mpd-partition?)
(list-of-mpd-plugin-or-output?, port?): New predicate.

(mpd-file-name, mpd-service-activation): Remove procedure.

(mpd-configuration)
[package, group, shepherd-requirement, log-file, log-level, music-directory]
[playlist-directory, endpoints, database, partitions, neighbors, inputs]
[archive-plugins, input-cache-size, decoders, resampler, filters]
[playlist-plugins, extra-options]: New field.
[music-dir, playlist-dir, address]: Deprecate shorthand field.
[db-file, state-file, sticker-file, port, outputs]: Change admissible type.

(mpd-shepherd-service)
[actions]: New shepherd actions: 'reopen' and 'configuration'.
[requirement]: Splice with 'shepherd-requirement' field.
[start]: Use 'package' field. Remove #:log-file parameter.
Move activation-service extension into constructor.

(mpd-accounts): Honor user and group names from configuration.
(mpd-log-rotation): New procedure.
(mpd-service-type)[extensions]: Add rottlog-service-type extension.
Remove activation-service-type extension.

(mpd-output-name, mpd-output-type, mpd-output-enabled?, mpd-output-format)
(mpd-output-tags?, mpd-output-always-on?, mpd-output-mixer-type)
(mpd-output-replay-gain-handler, mpd-output-extra-options)
(mpd-plugin-plugin, mpd-plugin-name, mpd-plugin-enabled?)
(mpd-plugin-extra-options)
(mpd-partition-name, mpd-partition-extra-options)
(mpd-configuration-package, mpd-configuration-user)

(mpd-configuration-log-file, mpd-configuration-log-level)
(mpd-configuration-music-directory, mpd-configuration-music-dir)
(mpd-configuration-playlist-directory, mpd-configuration-playlist-dir)
(mpd-configuration-db-file, mpd-configuration-state-file)
(mpd-configuration-sticker-file, mpd-configuration-default-port)
(mpd-configuration-endpoints, mpd-configuration-address)

* doc/guix.texi (Audio Services)[Music Player Daemon]: Update doc.
---


Notable changes since v5:
  * Export accessors.
  * Integrate activation-service-type extension into service constructor.
  * Honor existing directories and permissions, only create when absent.
