bug#60364: Bad definition of $TEXMF in guix shell containing texlive

Hello,

In a shell environment that contains texlive instead of texlive-base, $TEXMF 
contains the path to texlive packages directly, indead of the path to all 
packages in the profile. It is a problem for packages obtained from another 
channel / custom package definitions, which are then not found.

guix shell texlive -- kpsewhich -all -var-value TEXMF
{{}/home/elias/.texlive2021/texmf-config,/home/elias/.texlive2021/texmf-var,/home/elias/texmf,/gnu/store/j63hhbhiycaab3rx4fr0g96vybdfxmax-texlive-20210325/share/texmf-local,!!/gnu/store/7binnxi4w7sxlnpns2qa4yc94bfbfkqf-texlive-texmf-20210325/share/texmf-config,!!/gnu/store/7binnxi4w7sxlnpns2qa4yc94bfbfkqf-texlive-texmf-20210325/share/texmf-var,!!/gnu/store/7binnxi4w7sxlnpns2qa4yc94bfbfkqf-texlive-texmf-20210325/share/texmf-dist}

guix shell texlive-base -- kpsewhich -all -var-value TEXMF
{/gnu/store/jdfsq5k23cz70p68jmiyjca2asg7r1ll-profile/share/texmf-dist}

My workaround was to set TEXMFHOME to $GUIX_ENVIRONMENT/share/texmf-dist in my 
(fish) shell configuration so it is expanded when entering the guix 
environment, but it doesn't work when running the command directly (as in guix 
shell texlive -- lualatex file).
