Subject: [PATCH] Speed up stage0 bootstrap build using prebuilts

Use prebuilt bytecode of ice-9/eval.go and others for all of stage0,
it is optimized and evaluation is much faster. In my environment,
this speeds up the build of guile-3.0.9 from around 29 minutes to
only 19 minutes.

* meta/build-env.in: In stage0, prefer prebuilt bytecode over just
compiled stage0 files.

Dear Guile maintainers,

please consider below patch to speed up the build from release tarballs
that include prebuilt bytecode.
