bug#71047: [PATCH] doc: Recommend alist-copy instead of list-copy.

[Tomas Volf <~@wolfsden.cz>]

The current recommendation of `list-copy' is not right and does not lead
to preserving the original list:

    scheme@(guile-user)> (define x (list (cons 'a 1) (cons 'b 2)))
    scheme@(guile-user)> (define y (list-copy x))
    scheme@(guile-user)> (assq-set! y 'b 3)
    $1 = ((a . 1) (b . 3))
    scheme@(guile-user)> x
    $2 = ((a . 1) (b . 3))

Correct approach seems to be use `alist-copy' from SRFI-1 leading to the
expected behavior of:

    scheme@(guile-user)> ,use (srfi srfi-1)
    scheme@(guile-user)> (define x (list (cons 'a 1) (cons 'b 2)))
    scheme@(guile-user)> (define y (alist-copy x))
    scheme@(guile-user)> (assq-set! y 'b 3)
    $1 = ((a . 1) (b . 3))
    scheme@(guile-user)> x
    $2 = ((a . 1) (b . 2))

`alist-copy'.
