environment: For --ad-hoc, allow users to specify an output.
* guix/scripts/environment.scm (package+propagated-inputs): Add 'output'
parameter. Use it in return value.
(options/resolve-packages): Use 'append-map' instead of 'map'. For 'load'
and 'expression', return all the outputs of the resulting package. For
'package', use 'specification->package+output' instead of
'specification->package'.
(guix-environment): Adjust uses of PACKAGES accordingly.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix environment): Document it.
* tests/guix-environment.sh: Add test for --ad-hoc guile-bootstrap:out.
