* guix/scripts/lint.scm (check-inputs-should-be-native package): Add python
packages which are typically used for testing or for building the
documentation.
Also refactor some common code into a new function.
Examples for these pacakges are python(2)-setuptools and python(2)-pip, which
are installed together with python itself.
* guix/scripts/lint.scm (warn-if-package-has-input): New procedure.
(check-inputs-should-be-native package): Use it; rename and clean-up
variables. (check-inputs-should-not-be-an-input-at-all): New procedure.
(%checkers) Add it.
* doc/guix.texi (Python Modules): Document it.
* tests/lint.scm: ("inputs: python-setuptools should not be an input at all
(input)", "inputs: python-setuptools should not be an input at all
(native-input)" "inputs: python-setuptools should not be an input at all
(propagated-input)"): Add tests.
* gnu/packages/patches/python-2.7-site-prefixes.patch: New file.
* gnu/packages/python.scm (python-2)[source]: Use it.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add patch.
* guix/build-system/python.scm (python-build): New keyword argument
"#:use-setuptools?", defaulting to #t.
* guix/build/python-build-system.scm (call-setup-py): New positional
parameter "use-setuptools?". If false, do not use the shim-wrapper
for addin setuptools. (build, check): accept keyword-
parameter, and pass to call-setuppy. (install): same; if
"use-setuptools?" is false, do not use options "--root" and
"--single-version-externally-managed" for setup.py.
* doc/guix.texi (Build Systems): Document it.
This is needed for packages using "distutils" instead of "setuptools" since
the former does not understand the "--single-version-externally-managed"
flag. Also export __file__ since it will be unset when setup.py is called from
python "exec".
* guix/build/python-build-system.scm (call-setuppy): extend "python setup.py"
call to import setuptools, export __file__, and call setup.py from
setuptools python environment.

This requires setuptools to be installed together with python, which is
the case for Python 3 anyway and which we do for our build of Python 2
(see last commit).
* guix/build/python-build-system.scm (install): Add
"--single-version-externally-managed" and "--root=/" to params to be
passed to call-setuppy. Remove thus needless manipulation of
PYTHONPATH. Remove now unused argument "inputs".
* gnu/services/networking.scm (wpa-supplicant-service): New procedure.
(wpa-supplicant-service-type): New variable.
* doc/guix.texi (Networking Services): Document it.
* gnu/packages/patches/readline-6.2-CVE-2014-2524.patch: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add it.
* gnu/packages/readline.scm (readline-6.2): Use it.
* gnu/packages/mtools.scm (exfat-utils): Update to 1.2.4.
[source, home-page]: Move away from dead Google Code project.
[arguments, native-inputs]: Remove.
* gnu/packages/patches/libtiff-CVE-2016-9273.patch: New patch.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add it.
* gnu/packages/image.scm (libtiff/fixed): Use it.
