Ludovic Courtès 7acd3439ea install: Omit /root from the binary tarball.
Suggested by Thomas Schwinge <thomas@codesourcery.com>.

* gnu/system/install.scm (self-contained-tarball): Remove
  "/root/.guix-profile" from the 'tar' arguments.
* doc/guix.texi (Binary Installation): Add a step to create
  ~root/.guix-profile.
