gnu/packages/elixir.scm (elixir)[arguments]: Keep G-expressions, but use
========================================================================

Hi there,

While following a tutorial, I found myself struggling to build
elixir. After discussing on #guix, and looking on the build server for
clues, it seems that the SEARCH-INPUT-FILE change in 3da297997d ("gnu:
elixir: Use G-expressions.")  was the culprit. Within the
G-expression, I reverted to the use of WHICH for the "sh" binary,
while leaving the others as they are.

I do not understand the differences between these two functions or why
SEARCH-INPUT-FILE is preferential, so there may be additional caveats I'm not
aware of that SEARCH-INPUT-FILE addresses.

Thanks
John
