image: operating-system-for-image: Bring back root-fs placeholder.

To calculate the UUID in `root-uuid`, the operating-system has to have a root
file system, because it's typically used in the
operating-system-boot-parameters.

Followup of efc32c6684f75531cfd600874ba5d23a0bd643b9 that it partially reverts.

* gnu/system/image.scm (operating-system-for-image): Re-introduce root file
system to operating-system used to calculate the UUID.

Fixes: #5131
