offload: Improve load normalization and configurability.
Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/43773>.

The computed normalized load was previously obtained by dividing the load
average as found in /proc/loadavg by the number of parallel builds defined for
a build machine.

This normalized load didn't allow to compare machines with different number of
cores, as the load average reported by /proc/loadavg can be as high as the
number of cores; thus comparing that value to a fixed threshold of 2.0 would
mean machines with multiple cores were more likely to be flagged as overloaded
compared to single core machines.

This can be fixed by normalizing using the available number of cores instead
of the number of parallel jobs.

* guix/scripts/offload.scm (<build-machine>)[overload-threshold]: New field.
(node-load): Modify to return a normalized load value between 0 and 1, taking
into account the number of cores available.
(normalized-load): Remove procedure.

packages: 'package-input-rewriting/spec' can rewrite implicit dependencies.
With this change, '--with-input', '--with-graft', etc. also apply to
implicit dependencies.  Thus, it's now possible to do:

  guix build python-itsdangerous --with-input=python-wrapper=python@2

or:

  guix build hello --with-graft=glibc=glibc@2.29

Additionally, before, implicit inputs were not rewritten, which could
lead to duplicates in the output of 'bag-transitive-inputs' (packages
that are not 'eq?' but lead to the same derivation).  This in turn would
lead to unnecessary rebuilds when using '--with-input' & co.  This
change fixes it by ensuring even implicit inputs are rewritten.

Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/42156>.
