system: operating-system-etc-service: Set XCURSOR_PATH.
* gnu/system.scm (operating-system-etc-service): Set XCURSOR_PATH environment variable so that libxcursor finds cursors in user and system profiles. * gnu/packages/xorg.scm (libxcursor): Add a TODO for better handling of XCURSOR_PATH in other profiles.
