bug#60688: guix: home: environment-variables: Breaking change 73684dc90

[Kabelo Moiloa via Bug reports for GNU Guix]

Before this commit it was possible to build a guix home configuration where 
home-environment-variables-service-type could ungexp any file-like object such 
as a package. The commit 73684dc90 forces it to be a string, which contradicts 
the documentation for guix. 

Concretely, guix home environment test-home.scm worked before that commit where 
test-home.scm is attached to this email.

yhetil mirror is a little behind and I've not received this email thread
yet and thus it's not in my guix-home notmuch search.  A few minutes ago
I saw you forwarded this thread to me and patches look good, but I
already made and pushed similiar changes.  Sorry for inconvenience.
