describe: Gracefully handle profiles that lack provenance info.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/48313>. Previously, 'current-channels' would return the empty list when 'current-profile' is true but the profile lacks provenance info. * guix/describe.scm (current-channels)[build-time-metadata]: New procedure. Call it when 'manifest-entry-channel' returns #f for all of ENTRIES. * guix/scripts/describe.scm (guix-describe): When PROFILE is true, pass third argument to 'display-profile-info'.
