Come back and graphical installer

Hi Guix ! First mail since a while ! I'm currently finishing a long bicycle trip, and was able to start hacking again. I picked up the "Graphical installer" task. After studying the branch wip-installer-2, I choose to rewrite it for multiple reasons: * I found the guile-ncurses approach too lo
