    bootloader: Add 'disk-image-installer'.
    
    * gnu/bootloader.scm (<bootloader>)[disk-image-installer]: New field,
    (bootloader-disk-image-installer): export it.
    * gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (install-grub-disk-image): New procedure ...
    (grub-bootloader): ... used as "disk-image-installer" here.
    (grub-efi-bootloader): set "disk-image-installer" to #f.
    * gnu/system/image.scm (root-partition?, find-root-partition): Move to
    "Helpers" section.
    (root-partition-index): New procedure.
    (system-disk-image): Honor disk-image-installer, and
    use it to install the bootloader directly on the disk-image, if supported.
