These patches mean that grafts apply to the outputs of the guix
derivation, rather than having grafts apply to the derivation
itself. This moves grafting here to work like grafting for packages,
where you can think of the grafted outputs as a transformed variant of
the ungrafted outputs.

I'm looking at this as it'll allow the Guix Data Service to compute the
derivations without grafts, and for these to be useful for substitutes
regardless of whether users are using grafts.

  packages: Add explicit-grafting record type to assist with grafts.
  self: Apply grafts to the outputs of the guix derivation.

The data service comparison is now available for this, and while there
are no differences in the packages, you can see some information.

This is the channel instances before:

and this is after:
