You want to find a 20W 230V/230V safety isolating transformer, and your idea of removing a shaver socket is probably the easiest because otherwise you would need rewire back to the existing socket, for which there is limited access. Just make sure the socket face will fit the board cut out.
 
Personally, if I couldn't find a replacement part from the manufacture of the luminaire, I wouldn't get involved other than to fit a new luminaire, especially as it's in a bathroom. IMO
