I thought about this patch and I think we should add it. The regex
solution results in a lot of garbage inside the output directory.
Regular users don't compile u-boot, and anyone with the skills to port
guixsd to a new board will know what to put. It also serves as
documentation, from reading the package definition I can tell what the
relevant files are without examining the output directory (which is
full of garbage - so I have to google it anyway).
