[bug#61363] [PATCH v2 2/3] self: Restructure accessing packages.

[Christopher Baines]

Both for consistency (always use specification->package as defined in this
module) and so that all the packages that are used can be accessed (which
comes in useful when applying grafts).

* guix/self.scm (%packages): New variable.
(specification->package): Use %packages.
(locale-data, translate-texi-manuals, info-manual, guix-command,
compiled-guix): Use specification->package.
