[PATCH] guix: Add "virtiofs" to the list of pseudo file system types.
(address . 70909@debbugs.gnu.org)

Hi,

1) I have a system inside a qemu VM, sharing a directory with the host,
using `virtiofs`. This is the configuration.

```
(file-systems (cons*
(file-system
(device "/dev/sda2")
(mount-point "/")
(type "ext4"))
(file-system
(device "guix-cloned-channel")
(type "virtiofs")
(mount-point
"/home/mzan/lavoro/dokmelody/guix-cloned-channel/"))
(file-system
(device "shared-tmp")
(type "virtiofs")
(mount-point "/home/mzan/shared-tmp/"))
%base-file-systems))
```

I can mount manually it using

```
sudo mount -t virtiofs guix-cloned-channel
/home/mzan/lavoro/dokmelody/guix-cloned-channel/
```

but Guix gives this error

```
sudo guix system reconfigure
lavoro/admin/guix/guix-dev/guix-dev-container.scm
Password:
/home/mzan/lavoro/admin/guix/guix-dev/guix-dev-container.scm:48:18:
error: device 'guix-cloned-channel' not found: No such file or directory
hint: If 'guix-cloned-channel' is a file system label, write
`(file-system-label "guix-cloned-channel")' in
your `device' field.
```

The `guix-cloned-channel` is not a device, but a TAG managed by

So I added it to the list of pseudo file system types.

2) I were not able to test this (simple) patch, because I'm using Guix
hosted on an OpenSUSE OS. If it is mandatory testing it, let me know,
that I will install an host with GuixSD.

Many thanks for the great work!
Massimo
