packages, scripts, utils: Enable multi-threaded xz compression.

Browse Source 
xz compression is slow; using the multi-thread mode of xz can make it more
than 6 times faster, for example when compressing the large linux-libre
source.

* guix/build/utils.scm (%xz-parallel-args): New procedure.
* guix/packages.scm (patch-and-repack): Specify the required above xz
arguments by setting the XZ_DEFAULTS environment variable.
* guix/scripts/pack.scm (%compressors, bootstrap-xz): Modify the commands
Gexps so they do not need to be quoted.  This allows lazily evaluating the
arguments on the builder's side.  Specify the required xz arguments.
(self-contained-tarball): Do not quote the compressor command value.
(docker-image): Likewise.
* guix/utils.scm (decompressed-port, compressed-port)
(compressed-output-port): Specify the required above xz arguments.
