This is to accomodate following situation:
- The proxy is up
- The substitute server is down
When that happens, 5xx is returned from the proxy, typically either Bad
Gateway or Gateway Timeout. This implies the substitute server is down.
Still, for checking if the user is online, we do not check the response code.
If there is a response, even 4xx, 5xx, it still means the user is online.
* gnu/installer/newt/network.scm
(url-alive?): Add optional argument to to check the response code.
(common-urls-alive?): Add the same argument, passing it to url-alive?
(check-substitute-availability): Assume offline when non-successful http code
returned.

Follow up of #2518, where check-substitute-availability has been introduced.
This is mostly for system tests that run without internet access.

The user may choose to proceed with installation
even if they seem to be offline. This is mostly for cases
where the user if actually online, but the gnu and guix
infrastructure is down. On top of that, if the installer
has all the necessary dependencies the user might not need
internet at all.
* gnu/installer/newt/network.scm (wait-oservice-online): Add choice window for
user to continue if offline.

The general idea of the step is to check if user is online.
Even if the servers return errorful codes such as 504, the
user is online.
* gnu/installer/newt/network.scm (wait-service-online)[url-alive?]: Return #t
for all urls that return valid http response.

The aim here is to improve the user experience. There's anecdotal evidence
that the network performance for bordeaux is better compared to ci at least
for some users, and I don't know of any issues with rate limiting or access
restriction for bordeaux compared to ci. It also has IPv6 support.
Additionally, bordeaux generally had more substitutes than ci, particularly
for aarch64-linux and armhf-linux. This change will offer a very slight
speedup for those substitutes that only bordeaux has.
Bordeaux has been a default substitute server for nearly 3 years now and I
think this change is overdue. I'm also hopeful that we'll be able to build on
the testing regarding mirrors for bordeaux, and that'll allow potentially
improving the hosting setup (through providing more redundancy) and further
improving substitute fetching for users who currently have issues with
substitute access.

Checks the availability of the mirror bordeaux.guix.gnu.org in addition to
ci.guix.gnu.org. This allows to proceed the installation if the
ci.guix.gnu.org is unavailable.

This is useful for automated tests.
* gnu/installer/newt/network.scm (wait-service-online)[online?]: New
procedure. Check for /tmp/installer-assume-online.
Use it instead of 'connman-online?'.
Previously, for a machine that only has wired networking, and only one
such network, we'd have to go through two selection boxes. Now we just
skip both.

'ethernet-services' returns one element, return it directly without
opening a listbox selection.

If no technology is detected, ask the user if he prefers to continue or to
exit the installer.

technology-items procedure returns an empty list.
