It doesn't seem relevant to me that most packages use gtk+@3,
since fcitx5-gtk is not most packages.  Majority is irrelevant here.

Anyways, we try to use the latest version of packages in Guix whenever
feasible (for features, for bugfixes, because eventually the old
versions will be unsupported upstream and to have less versions to
keep track of), and gtk@4 is the latest version of gtk, so it seems to
me that we should simplify things here by just using the latest version
of gtk, i.e., gtk@4.
