On the daemon side, nixStore gets set to the environment variable
NIX_STORE_DIR, else the environment variable NIX_STORE else the compile time
macro NIX_STORE_DIR (see the Settings::processEnvironment method in
nix/libstore/globals.cc).  Hence, it is more appropriate to lookup the
environment variable NIX_STORE_DIR than NIX_STORE in (guix build utils).

* guix/build/utils.scm (%store-directory): Call getenv with NIX_STORE_DIR
instead of NIX_STORE.

I found that both environment variables should be honored and pushed
with a revised explanation in 47a6a938c3c4d0bbe7b6a3c64ff75d7bfb2f24fb.

Closing,
