The tarball can be copied to the VM through the serial port with the
following command:
# cat > guix-installer-vm.tar.xz.b64
the user then pastes the base64 content and types ctrl+d and this
results in the file being written.
The content can then be extracted with the following commands:
# base64 -d guix-installer-vm.tar.xz.b64 > guix-installer-vm.tar.xz
# tar xf guix-installer-vm.tar.xz

According to the operating-system-file fileld of
unattended-upgrade-configuration in the manual, automatic updates
don't work when "/run/current-system/configuration.scm [...] refers to
extra files (SSH public keys, extra configuration files, etc.) via
local-file and similar constructs.".
So we need these files in the store and to point to them to make the
automatic updates work.
