hurd-boot: Create individual translators instead of running MAKEDEV.

* gnu/build/hurd-boot.scm (make-hurd-device-nodes): Do not create
dev/{null,zero,full,random,urandom} mount points.
(setup-translator, xattr-translator,
showtrans-translator?, translated?, set-hurd-device-translators): New
procedures.
(boot-hurd-system): Use them instead of running MAKEDEV.
