environment: '--link-profile' uses ~/.guix-profile for environment variables.

Before this patch, we had:

  $ guix environment -CP --ad-hoc coreutils
  [env]$ echo $PATH
  /gnu/store/…-profile/bin
  [env]$ echo $GUIX_ENVIRONMENT
  /gnu/store/…-profile

After this patch:

  $ guix environment -CP --ad-hoc coreutils
  [env]$ echo $PATH
  /home/ludo/.guix-profile/bin
  [env]$ echo $GUIX_ENVIRONMENT
  /home/ludo/.guix-profile

* guix/scripts/environment.scm (launch-environment/container): When
LINK-PROFILE? is true, pass ~/.guix-profile as the second argument to
'launch-environment'.
* tests/guix-environment-container.sh: Adjust test accordingly.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix environment): Update accordingly.

@item --link-profile
@itemx -P
For containers, link the environment profile to @file{~/.guix-profile}
within the container. This is equivalent to running the command
@samp{ln -s $GUIX_ENVIRONMENT ~/.guix-profile} within the container.
within the container and set @code{GUIX_ENVIRONMENT} to that.
This is equivalent to making @file{~/.guix-profile} a symlink to the
actual profile within the container.
Linking will fail and abort the environment if the directory already
exists, which will certainly be the case if @command{guix environment}
was invoked in the user's home directory.
