2019-01-11guix build: Re-purpose '--verbosity' and add '--debug'.Ludovic Courtès

2018-12-24offload: Use (guix inferior) instead of (ssh dist node).Ludovic Courtès
Using inferiors and thus 'guix repl' simplifies setup on build machines (no need to worry about GUILE_LOAD_PATH etc.) Furthermore, the 'guix repl -t machine' protocol running in a remote pipe addresses several issues with the current implementation of nodes and RREPLs in Guile-SSH: fewer round trips, doesn't leave a 'guile --listen' process behind it, stateless (since a new process is started each time), more efficient (the SSH channel can be reused), more reliable (no 'pgrep', 'pkill', and shellology; see <https://github.com/artyom-poptsov/guile-ssh/issues/11> as an example.) * guix/ssh.scm (inferior-remote-eval): New procedure. (send-files): Use it instead of 'make-node' and 'node-eval'. * guix/scripts/offload.scm (node-guile-version): New procedure. (node-free-disk-space, transfer-and-offload, node-load) (choose-build-machine, assert-node-has-guix): Use 'remote-inferior' instead of 'make-node' and 'inferior-eval' instead of 'node-eval'. (assert-node-can-import, assert-node-can-export): Likewise, and add 'session' parameter. (check-machine-availability): Likewise, and add calls to 'close-inferior' and 'disconnect!'. (check-machine-status): Likewise. * doc/guix.texi (Daemon Offload Setup): Remove bit related to 'guile' in $PATH and $GUILE_LOAD_PATH; mention 'guix' alone.
