utils: Use '@' for separating package names and version numbers.
This provides the ability to use numbers in package names. Fixes <http://bugs.gnu.org/19219>. * guix/utils.scm (package-name->name+version): New procedure. * gnu/packages.scm (%find-package): Add a FALLBACK? keyword argument. Use the previous method when no package is found. (specification->package+output, specification->package): Adapt documentation to new syntax. * doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix package, Invoking guix import): Likewise. * guix/ui.scm (package-specification->name+version+output): Likewise. * guix/scripts/import/hackage.scm (show-help): Likewise. * tests/guix-build.sh: Adapt to new syntax. * tests/guix-lint.sh: Likewise. * tests/guix-package.sh: Likewise. * tests/ui.scm ("package-specification->name+version+output"): Likewise. * tests/utils.scm ("package-name->name+version"): Likewise. * NEWS: Mention new syntax.
