This ensures ~/.cache/guix/checkouts is periodically cleaned up.

* guix/git.scm (cached-checkout-expiration)
(%checkout-cache-cleanup-period): New variables.
(delete-checkout): New procedure.
(update-cached-checkout)[cache-entries]: New procedure.
Add call to 'maybe-remove-expired-cache-entries'.

Hi!

I noticed that my ~/.cache/guix/checkouts directory had accumulated
a lot of cruft from channels, playing with ‘--with-branch’ and such,
and that it would be nice to clean it up once in a while.

This is what this patch does.  It uses the (guix cache) default
strategy, which consists in deleting least-recently-used items by
looking at their atime.

Thoughts?

Pffew.  :-)

Pushed as 87b0001325992db60fdf24ac09ce254cd003721c!

Yup!  (Not ETA though…)

Thanks,
