Or even simpler: remove this line, and add (source (file-append (package-source sway) "/contrib")) as a field. A quick  "git grep -F '(source (file-append" doesn't result in any packages already doing that, but it seems a perfect fit here to me ...  OTOH, this probably interferes with --with-git-url and such, so I'd guess better not.
