Subject: Add option to make "guix refresh" keep the downloaded files
Date: Sat, 30 Jan 2021 14:51:17 +0100

When running "guix refresh -u some-package" downloads the package to 
update the hash. But the source is not added to the store, Thus when 
running "guix build some-package", the source will be downloaded again.

I'd like to have an option to make "guix refresh" add teh source to the 
store, so it is already available for "guix build".
