guix package: 'search-path-environment-variables' traverses module tree once.
* guix/scripts/package.scm (search-path-environment-variables)[manifest-entry->package]: Use 'find-best-packages-by-name' instead of 'find-packages-by-name'. On a profile with 140 packages, this reduces execution time of this procedure from 5.8 seconds to 2.9 seconds (50% improvement.)
