[bug#36872] [PATCH 1/2] remote: Build derivations appropriate for the remote's architecture.

[Jakob L. Kreuze]

* guix/ssh.scm (remote-system): New variable.
* guix/remote.scm (remote-eval): Use result of 'remote-system' when
lowering the G-Expression.
(trampoline): Return a <program-file> rather than a <scheme-file>.
