Hi!

In order to take care of these TODOs

TODO:
  * regenerate Mes bootstrap seeds, put them on ftp.gnu.org
  * slow tests: "gnu-build-system", "union-build"
  * doc: make "Reduced Binary Seed Bootstrap" subsection in Bootstrapping
  * doc: update “Preparing to Use the Bootstrap Binaries”
  * doc: update “Reducing the Set of Bootstrap Binaries”

I replaced the opaque, manually created %mes-seed and %tinycc-seed by
new pacckages: mes-stripped, mes-stripped-tarball, and %bootstrap-mes.

That allowed me to modify the remaining documentation sections too.
Sending a patch series, also available from

    https://gitlab.com/janneke/guix @core-updates-next
    
WDYT?

Greetings,
janneke
