New file "tests/docker-inception.scm" with small problem

Hi,

there's a new branch "wip-docker-test" which has a new (non-system) test tests/docker-inception.scm .

You can run it via:

  make TESTS=tests/docker-inception.scm check

Unfortunately, it fails with some inscrutable qemu error message:

qemu-system-x86_64: -virtfs local,path=/home/dannym/src/guix-ns14/guix/test-tmp/store,security_model=none,mount_tag=TAGy5ajggutlpmxibmqfchkokzxuwid: cannot ini
tialize fsdev 'TAGy5ajggutlpmxibmqfchkokzxuwid': failed to open '/home/dannym/src/guix-ns14/guix/test-tmp/store': No such file or directory

Trying to fix it (setting NIX_STORE etc) made it worse, so I reverted that part.

Help?

I don't know what the problem is, but the test reads an awful lot like a
"system test" to me.  Any particular reason you wish to run this as a
"unit test"?  Perhaps we need another category for "package tests"?  :)

I suspect converting to a system test will fix this problem, as it will
use a "normal" store instead of the scratch one in ./test-tmp.
