guix gc: '--delete-generations' now deletes old Home generations.
Previously, 'guix gc -d4m' would ignore Home generations. With this change, they are treated like profiles and generations that match the pattern are deleted. * guix/scripts/gc.scm (guix-gc)[delete-generations]: Add call to 'home-generation-base'. * doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix gc): Document the change.
