This will graft python-pycodestyle in place of python-pep8. Are they
fully API compatible?
I think grafting is something that should be reserved for critical
problems affecting a large number of packages, e.g. security fixes for
central libraries. Since there are only 10 direct dependents of pep8
according to `guix refresh -l` (21 rebuilds in total), a "megapatch"
replacing all inputs should be okay.
We should probably also add a "superseded" property to the pep8 package
so any downstream users gets the message.
