gexp: Compilers can now provide an "expander".
* guix/gexp.scm (<gexp-compiler>)[expand]: New field. (default-expander, lookup-expander): New procedures. (define-gexp-compiler): Add second pattern to allow for the definition of both a compiler and an expander. (gexp->sexp)[reference->sexp]: Call 'lookup-expander' and use its result.
