Currently this patch series does not improve anything much, according
to "guix graph --type=module hello | wc --lines".  I'm now introducing
some module-ref+resolve-interface --- it's very convenient, but I'm not
yet at a significant result.

Anyway, restructuring modules and lazy loading can be complementary,
whatever's convenient.

Greetings,
Maxime.
