ui: Initialize %FILE-PORT-NAME-CANONICALIZATION to #f.
This avoids loads of needless 'stat' calls due to the default 'relative setting and the 'canonicalize-path' calls it leads to. This was especially visible when 'guix substitute' access files in /var/guix/substitute/cache. * guix/ui.scm (run-guix-command): Set %FILE-PORT-NAME-CANONICALIZATION to #f.
