guix: Add lint-checker for packages which should be no inputs at all.
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.
