gnu: qemu: Add Guix support to QEMU guest agent.
QEMU guest agent hardcodes paths to /sbin/hwclock and /sbin/shutdown. Patch the source to try binaries under /run/current-system/profile/sbin first. * gnu/packages/patches/qemu-fix-agent-paths.patch: New file. * gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Register the patch. * gnu/packages/virtualization.scm (qemu)[origin]: Apply it. Signed-off-by: Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
