The current reference to Intel's Appendix H appears too obscure and confusing.

* guix/ui.scm (package->recutils)[output->recutils]: Replace “see Appendix H”
with “‾\_(ツ)_/‾”.

As I commented in #54454 [1], the plain “undocumented” should appear
because it is explicit.  For instance,

      (G_ "undocumented ‾\\_(ツ)_/‾"))))

I would just make it "(description unavailable)".

It’s boring, I know, but (1) it’s consistent with the rest of the UI,
and (2) it doesn’t require Unicode-capable displays.
