Subject: [PATCH 0/4] gnu: Add browserpass-native.

This patch series adds browserpass-native. Browserpass is a browser extension that integrates the `pass` password manager with the browser. This does not add the extension itself, only the native messaging component which runs outside of the browser process and communicates with the extension. Packaging the extension itself requires better Node.js infrastructure in Guix, so it is left to the user to install on their own.

I think this is the first native messaging host to be packaged for Guix, so it probably makes sense to get input from the maintainers of IceCat and ungoogled-chromium. The native messaging host is not automatically detected by either browser - the user needs to run something like `make -C $(guix build browserpass-native)/lib/browserpass hosts-chromium-user` to install it into their home directory.

Nix builds a wrapper around Firefox to detect the native messaging hosts that are installed, and I think Guix should consider doing something similar.
