system: Define '%base-packages' and use it.
* gnu/system.scm (<operating-system>)[packages]: Change default value to %BASE-PACKAGES. (%base-packages): New variable. * gnu/system/install.scm (installation-os): Use it when defining the 'packages' field. * doc/guix.texi (Using the Configuration System): Use %BASE-PACKAGES in example. Remove now unneeded module imports. Explain this.
