publish: Gracefully handle the lack of a deriver.

* guix/scripts/publish.scm (narinfo-string): Catch 'system-error' around
  'load-derivation' call; return BASE-INFO upon ENOENT.  This allows us
  to return the narinfo even if DERIVER is missing.  Before that, the
  exception would be uncaught, leading to 500 Internal Error on the
  client side.
