Add a declarative packaging layer.

* Makefile.am (MODULES): Add `guix/packages.scm' and `distro/base.scm'.
  (TESTS): Add `tests/packages.scm'.
  (EXTRA_DIST): New variable.

* guix/packages.scm, distro/base.scm, tests/packages.scm: New files.

* guix/http.scm (http-fetch): Make `name' an optional argument, to match
  the expectations of `package-source-derivation'.
