services: Switch to ‘shepherd-system-log-service-type’ in ‘%base-services’.

This reinstates c83bfc0415, which had been
reverted in 8c483c12e9 in response to
<https://issues.guix.gnu.org/76315>.

* gnu/services/base.scm (%base-services): Replace ‘syslog-service-type’
by ‘shepherd-system-log-service-type’.
* doc/guix.texi (Base Services): Update ‘syslog-service-type’
documentation.
(Shepherd Services): Mention that ‘system-log-service-type’ is in
‘%base-services’.  Add anchor.
