packages: Define this-package-input and this-package-native-input.

These macros are intended to be used in build phases.
More precisely, (assoc-ref %build-inputs "input") can be
replaced by #$(this-package-input "input") or #+(this-package-native-input
"native-input") as appropriate.

* guix/packages.scm
  (package-input, package-native-input): New (unexported) procedures.
  (this-package-input, this-package-native-input): New macros.
