We probably should clean temporary $HOME directory with 'rm -rf' or
delete each file with 'rm' and then invoke 'rmdir' inside a Bash's
'trap'.  I fill worry about removing operations on $HOME directories.

Alternative is not to remove $HOME by calling some command and just exit
from a namespace, which will remove $HOME mounted as tmpfs after exiting
a process running the guix-home.sh test.

Also returned Andrew's 'guix home search' tests.

And 'home-bash-service-type' is replaced with 'simple-service' to not to
block the guix-home.sh test from merging in master until completion of
discussion about file-like objects.
