* configure.ac: Emit a warning when $storedir is not "/gnu/store".

Reported by rohit yadav <rohityadav@utexas.edu>
at <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2017-02/msg00191.html>.

This fixes a regression whereby 'guix perform-download' would always see
NIX_STORE as unset and thus use "/gnu/store", leading it to miscompute
the hydra.gnu.org content-addressed URLs when the store file name is not
"/gnu/store".

* nix/libstore/builtins.cc (builtinDownload): Add 'setenv' call for
'NIX_STORE'.

Fixes a regression introduced in
d846834f where '--with-platform=efi'
would no longer be passed.

for #:configure-flags.

See <https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=752738>.

[arguments]: Add #:configure-flags '("CFLAGS=-std=gnu99").

'with-imported-modules' and add 'modules' field.  Use
'make-forkexec-constructor/container' and pass #:mappings.

* gnu/services/networking.scm (bitlbee-shepherd-service): Pass
  #:pid-file to 'make-forkexec-constructor'.

* etc/completion/bash/guix (_guix_complete_subcommand): Refer to
the $COMP_CWORD element instead of the last element.

* etc/completion/bash/guix (_guix_complete_pid): New function.
(_guix_complete): Add case for "container".

* etc/completion/bash/guix (_guix_complete): When the command is
"system" and $COMP_CWORD > 2, use _guix_complete_file.

Reported by a couple of cool folks at a bar in Brussels.

* etc/completion/bash/guix (_guix_complete): Use '_guix_complete_file'
for 'guix gc'.  This fixes completion of 'guix gc -d'.

* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (%network-configuration-files)
(%network-file-mappings): New variables.
* guix/scripts/environment.scm (%network-configuration-files): Remove.
(launch-environment/container): Refer to '%network-file-mappings'
