NOTE: This patchset is contingent on #68616 being merged. More specifically,
it requires a newer version of rust-clap-complete (^4.4). I just wanted to
send it on the mailing list in case I forget.

swww is a wayland wallpaper switcher daemon controlled at
runtime. Unfortunately, it seems like the program is dependent on systemd
being present as one of its dependencies is `rust-sd-notify' which at first
glance is a systemd contingent crate.

Fortunately, it can be used to some effect on foreign distros with systemd as
I was able to get sway to change backgrounds with it (except for the fact that
it's almost entirely unreliable). Perhaps someone else can test this on their
own foreign distro (or Guix System) and report back what works and what
doesn't.

If swww can't work on either systemd foreign distros and/or Guix System, then
feel free to just merge the library crates and skip swww.

Jaeme Sifat (6):
  gnu: Add rust-keyframe-1.

I moved lz4 to inputs and wrapped the binaries.  I also adjusted the
install phase so it would work when cross-compiling.

Patches pushed to the rust-team branch. Thanks.
