gnu: Replace texlive-latex-base with texlive-latex-bin.

Although `latex-base' is clearly defined on CTAN, it isn't a proper TeX Live
package.  Since we're trying to follow as closely as possible this TeX
distribution, we replace the package with the closest one, which is
`texlive-latex-bin'.  As a consequence, the #:TEXLIVE-LATEX-BASE argument
becomes #:TEXLIVE-LATEX-BIN?, emphasizing the fact that the meaningful values
for it are booleans.

* gnu/packages/graphviz.scm (dot2tex)[propagated-inputs]: Remove
TEXLIVE-GRAPHICS, TEXLIVE-LATEX-BASE.  Add TEXLIVE-LATEX-BIN.
* gnu/packages/plotutils.scm (asymptote)[native-inputs]: Remove
TEXLIVE-LATEX-BASE, TEXLIVE-GRAPHICS, TEXLIVE-L3BACKEND.  Use
TEXLIVE-UPDMAP.CFG.
* gnu/packages/sphinx.scm (python-sphinx)[propagated-inputs]: Remove
TEXLIVE-GRAPHICS, TEXLIVE-LATEX-BASE.  Add TEXLIVE-LATEX-BIN.
* gnu/packages/tex.scm (texlive-latex-base): Deprecate variable.
