I think 'delete-file-recursively' is already in the (guix build utils)
module. Also, I think you can try running "grep -r stat:size",
"grep -r timestamp" or something similar on the repo to get an idea if
similar functions exist (I actually use "rgrep" in emacs). You may also
inspect widely used modules such as (guix build utils) or (guix utils).
