bug#39377: guix search reports bad location for bytestructures

User-agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/68.4.1

I'm using guix-1.0.1 on Fedora 30, x86_64.

I wanted to get module spec for bytestructures, but failed:
location points to (guix packages), but it's actually in (gnu packages guile).

$ guix search bytestructures
name: guile3.0-bytestructures
version: 1.0.7
outputs: out
systems: x86_64-linux i686-linux
dependencies: autoconf@2.69 automake@1.16.1 guile-next@3.0.0 pkg-config@0.29.2
location: guix/packages.scm:880:11

synopsis: Structured access to bytevector contents for Guile
description: Guile bytestructures offers a system imitating the type system of + the C programming language, to be used on bytevectors.  C's type system works + on raw memory, and Guile works on bytevectors which are an abstraction over + raw memory.  It's also more powerful than the C type system, elevating types
+ to first-class status.
