system: Add swap flags.

* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (swap-space)[priority, discard?]: Add
them.
* guix/build/syscalls.scm (SWAP_FLAG_PREFER, SWAP_FLAG_PRIO_MASK,
SWAP_FLAG_PRIO_SHIFT, SWAP_FLAG_DISCARD): Add them.
* gnu/build/file-systems.scm (swap-space->flags-bit-mask): Add it.
* gnu/services/base.scm (swap-service-type): Use it.
