Subject: [bug#43953] [PATCH] guix build: Move package transformation options behind '--help-transform'.

* guix/scripts/build.scm (show-help): Likewise.
* guix/scripts/environment.scm (show-help): Likewise.
* guix/scripts/graph.scm (show-help): Likewise.
* guix/scripts/install.scm (show-help): Likewise.
* guix/scripts/pack.scm (show-help): Likewise.
* guix/scripts/package.scm (show-help): Likewise.
* guix/scripts/upgrade.scm (show-help): Likewise.
* doc/guix.texi (Package Transformation Options): Mention '--help-transform'.
