This works, thanks!

Should we document it in `guix size -h`?

I think the result is interesting with respect to the discussion we had
about shrinking the closure sizes in Guix:

- go: I think I've got go because of docker, but go should be a
  build-time dependency, I don't think it belong here.

- llvm: I think it's mostly dragged by Mesa.
  Mesa depends on some LLVM libs, but not all of llvm:
  https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/mesa/

Moving the llvm libs to a "lib" output could reduce the closure size of
many packages I believe.

Thoughts?
