import: crate: Allow imports of a specific version.
* guix/import/crate.scm (crate->guix-package): Add optional 'version' argument and honor it. * guix/scripts/import/crate.scm (guix-import-crate): Assume the first argument is a spec and destructure it with 'package-name->name+version'. Pass both to 'crate->guix-package'. * doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix import): Document it. Co-authored-by: Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
