bug#31892: guix pull ignores --substitute-urls in some cases

Hello Vagrant,

Vagrant Cascadian <vagrant@debian.org> skribis:

This bug was due to the fact that the ‘compute-guix-derivation’ program
would open a new connection to the store, and thus it would not inherit
the build options of its parent ‘guix pull’ process (substitute URLs,
build hook, timeouts, etc.).

Should be fixed with 790c3e019a5410018bd31596c2dcda5d0efb0d36.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
