xf86-input-libinput builds fine with this patch and achieves quite a
dramatic closure size reduction from 817 MB to 199 MB! :-)

`guix refresh -l` reports that this change will cause the rebuild of 781
packages. So, according to the manual, this should go to the staging
branch.

Weird, I get this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
> guix refresh -l xf86-input-libinput
Building the following 2 packages would ensure 4 dependent packages are rebuilt: lxqt@0.14.1 xfce@4.14.2
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

In fact, to test the patch Guix didn't rebuild anything for me (I don't
use lxqt / xfce).

Oops, sorry! I accidentally looked up the dependents of
libinput-minimal. Please push to master.

Thanks!
