packages: 'package-input-rewriting/spec' optionally replace hidden.
Commit eee95b5a879b7096dffd533f24107cf8926b621e changed package
rewriting to ignore hidden packages. This patch permits the previous use
by adding an option to rewrite hidden packages.
* guix/packages.scm (package-input-rewriting/spec)[rewrite]: When P is
hidden, return it as-is unless #:replace-hidden? has been enabled.
* tests/packages.scm ("package-input-rewriting/spec, replace hidden
package"): New test.
* doc/guix.texi (Defining Package Variants): Update.
