* guix/config.scm.in (%store-directory, %store-directory, %system): New
  variables.
* guix/store.scm (%nix-state-dir): Remove.
  (%default-socket-path): Use %STATE-DIRECTORY as the default.
  (%store-prefix): Use %STORE-DIRECTORY as the default.
* guix/utils.scm (%current-system): Default to %SYSTEM.
