2020-11-29doc: Document that source derivation builds can be checked.Maxim Cournoyer

While there doesn't seem to be an obvious solution to this problem, we can at least document the fact that sources can be checked the same as other builds. * doc/guix.texi (Additional Build Options): Document that source derivation builds can be verified using --check.
