* gnu/packages/book-software.scm (book-r5rs): New variable.

Please apply this patch last.
This patch is for the R5RS spec document, in PDF and Info formats.
Not sure what conventions would work best, but here I used:
1. package definitions for books/documents go into the file
   "book-[type].scm".
2. package definition names are formatted "book-[shortname]".
3. PDF is installed into share/doc/shortname.
4. other formats go into the appropriate path for their file type,
   or share/doc/shortname.

I think distributing books and documentation through Guix, especially
technical or FOSS-related, is an interesting idea.
Maybe these packages could go in the same .scm file as iyzsong's package for
the book "Free as in Freedom":
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/62545

I would be interested to hear what others think about books in Guix.
Would we want to limit to technical books? What about translations?
Has this already been proposed somewhere?

Good idea, I'll rename 'faif' to 'book-faif' later.

I don't know any former proposed/discussion.  Well I'd like to also
include translations, eg:

https://github.com/lifanxi/free-as-in-freedom-zh-cn
https://github.com/beijinglug/fsfs-zh


For non-technical books, maybe math books? eg:

https://discrete.openmathbooks.org/dmoi3.html

I'm not sure though, due to lack of confidence to make a judge...

Do you think it would be a good idea to install the files to
/share/doc/[shortname]/, or just /share/doc/? I used the first one to
avoid cluttering /share/doc/, or maybe for organization purposes if a
book is split into multiple files. But I can update this patch to use
/share/doc/ if you disagree.

Sounds good to me.

I would definitely want math books. I would be OK with any non-fiction
work so long as it can be typeset from source and is freely licensed,
but then there might be a lot of book packages.
