gnu: guile-static-stripped: Remove dependency on bash-minimal.
Previously guile-static-stripped, which is embedded in the initrd, would depend on 'bash-minimal' and 'glibc'; the closure size was 77 MiB. Now the closure size is down to 45.7 MiB. Reported by Danny Milosavljevic <dannym@scratchpost.org> in <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2018-02/msg00505.html>. * gnu/packages/make-bootstrap.scm (%guile-static): Remove the 'pre-configure' phase. (%guile-static-stripped)[arguments]: Add #:allowed-references.
