services: mpd: Do not hardcode environment variables.
Services should not expect for XDG_RUNTIME_DIR to be set.
Inferring from the past comment, this seemed to resolve an issue when
the service was launched with an _interactive_ user-account,
which tends to have this variable set by the login-manager.

This is not the case for system accounts and setting this variable
results in PulseAudio (launched by the same system user) failing to start
since it attempts to use a nonexistent directory.

Ideally, this service should have a home-service counterpart but the old
behavior can be emulated by setting the environment-variables field to:

(environment-variables
  (list
    (string-append "XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/"
                   (number->string (passwd:uid (getpwnam "myuser"))))))

* gnu/services/audio.scm

doc: contributing: Tweak the Commit Policy.
Add more examples of when it can be appropriate to push changes without
review, as I think this can be appropriate in the case of trivial changes (as
mentioned before), but also non-trivial fixes.

No longer suggest pushing simple new packages or package upgrades (that don't
cause lots of rebuilds) without sending to guix-patches. Now there's some
automation for testing changes sent to guix-patches, sending changes there
before pushing can mean that more rigorous testing takes place and help speed
up substitutes becoming available. This is true, even if no human review takes
place.

Only suggest waiting one week for review for simpler changes, wait two weeks
for more significant changes.

Also, reorder some of the information in this section so it's grouped together
better.

   (operating-system
    (bootloader
      (bootloader-configuration

            #:hooks my-special-bootloader-profile-manipulator))

        …))
    …)

* doc/guix.texi (Bootloader Configuration): Describe the new
‘grub-efi-netboot-removable-bootloader’.  Mention the file names used and that
the UEFI Boot Manager is not modified.  Advise to disable write-access over
TFTP.
* gnu/bootloader.scm (efi-bootloader-profile): Allow a list of packages and
collect everything directly in the profile, avoiding a separate collection
directory.  Renamed the profile from "bootloader-profile" to
"efi-bootloader-profile".
[bootloader-collection]: Rename to...

(efi-bootloader-chain): Add PACKAGES and DISK-IMAGE-INSTALLER arguments.
Remove handling of the collection directory, now only calling the given
installer procedure.
* gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (make-grub-efi-netboot-installer): New helper.
(make-grub-configuration): New helper based on (grub-configuration-file).  Add

services: configuration: Revert to a working ‘guix home’.
This reverts commit 543d971ed2, and
its dependent commit 9b21cd2e9a, which
appear to have triggered a recent wave of ‘guix home’ regressions
involving (services (list (service home-bash-service-type))):

In gnu/home/services/shells.scm:
    504:7  3 (home-bash-extensions #<<home-bash-configuration> package: #<package bash@5.1.8 gnu/packages/ba…> …)
In unknown file:

  1685:16  0 (raise-exception _ #:continuable? _)

ice-9/boot-9.scm:1685:16: In procedure raise-exception:
In procedure append: Wrong type argument in position 1 (expecting empty list): #<<location> file: "…" line: 14 column: 12>

I should love to dive in & fix this rather than revert, but urgently
need sleep.
