Subject: [PATCH v2 6/6] installer: Report known-unsupported PCI devices.

From: Ludovic Courtès <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 9 Nov 2022 22:56:37 +0100

* gnu/installer/hardware.scm: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (INSTALLER_MODULES): Add it.
* po/guix/POTFILES.in: Add it.
* gnu/installer.scm (installer-steps): Pass #:pci-database to the
'welcome' step procedure.
* gnu/installer/newt.scm (welcome-page): Add #:pci-database and pass it
to 'run-welcome-page'.
* gnu/installer/newt/welcome.scm (check-hardware-support): Add #:pci-database.
Enumerate unsupported PCI devices and run an error page when unsupported
devices are found.
(run-welcome-page): Add #:pci-database and pass it to
'check-hardware-support'.
* gnu/installer/record.scm (<installer>)[welcome-page]: Adjust comment.
