effect.

behavior.
Suggested by Andreas Enge <andreas@enge.fr> at

* guix-package.in (roll-back): Check whether PROFILE is valid using
`file-exists?'. When NUMBER is zero, just emit a notice. When
PREVIOUS-NUMBER is zero and PREVIOUS-PROFILE does not exist, build the
empty profile, and link to it.

* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix-package): Document the new behavior.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix-build): Make it clear that `guix-build'

Use it instead of using `find-packages-by-name' directly.
Suggested by Andreas Enge <andreas@enge.fr>.

* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix-build): Add `coreutils-8.20' as an
example. Fix guile-1.8 example.

Memoize all the return values of THUNK.
(cached-derivation): Remove.
(cached): New macro.
(package-derivation): Use `cached' instead of `(or (cached-derivation) …)'.
* doc/guix.texi (Defining Packages): Update accordingly.
Based on a patch by Nikita Karetnikov <nikita@karetnikov.org>.
* guix-package.in (profile-regexp): New procedure.
(latest-profile-number): Remove `%profile-rx', and use
`profile-regexp' instead.
(profile-number, roll-back): New procedure.
(show-help): Add `--roll-back'.
(%options): Likewise.
(guix-package)[process-actions]: First check whether `roll-back?' is
among OPTS, and call `roll-back' if it is, followed by a recursive
call to `process-actions'. Emit the "nothing to be done" message only
when INSTALL or REMOVE is non-empty.
* tests/guix-package.sh (readlink_base): New function.
Add tests for `--roll-back'.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix-package): Document `--roll-back'.
