IIUC the guix command does not particularly need to provide support for
multiple profiles, so we could isolate it. After all, extensions ought
to be installed in the user's (single) current-guix profile, no?
(Disregarding the use of guix environment/guix shell, of course.) Or
more accurately, GUIX_EXTENSIONS_PATH serves as a different escape
hatch.
