Hi!

I went ahead and unbundled all I could from the package. There are still
some vendored libraries that I think it's unreasonable to pacakge in
Guix, since they won't be useful for other packages. I added multiple
comments explaining why certain libraries remain bundled in the
package. You will see that, although I made Guix packages for most
libraries so they can be used by other users, for others I had to deploy
their source code in-tree. This is due to ImHex not supporting
unbundling them. After some discussions with the maintainers, the effort
required to refactor the build system to support a more modular
compilation, is out of the scope of the protect; the changes you see in
the following patches is the best I could do with a reasonable amount of
effort.

I hope this brings the package up to Guix's standards and
allows us to merge it.

Good night,
Sergio.
