'--profile-name=current-guix'. Remove glibc and glibc-utf8-locales.
* doc/guix.texi (Binary Installation): Update accordingly.
* etc/guix-install.sh
* etc/guix-install.sh (sys_create_store, sys_enable_guix_daemon)
(sys_authorize_build_farms): Likewise.
* etc/guix-publish.conf.in, etc/guix-publish.service.in,
etc/guix-daemon.conf.in, etc/guix-daemon.service.in: Update file names
accordingly.
