activation: Operate on <user-account> and <user-group> records.

* gnu/system/accounts.scm (sexp->user-group, sexp->user-account): New
procedures.
* gnu/system/shadow.scm (account-activation): Call them in the arguments
to 'activate-users+groups'.
(account-shepherd-service): Likewise.
* gnu/build/activation.scm (activate-users+groups): Expect a list of
<user-account> and a list of <user-group>.  Replace uses of 'match' on
tuples with calls to record accessors.
(activate-user-home): Likewise.
