ui: Suggest installing glibc-locales, not glibc-utf8-locales.

Users (both old and new) struggling with locale warnings is a recurrent theme;
part of it may be due to the glibc-utf8-locales package being misleading, as
it only includes a subset of the UTF-8 locales.  To prevent confusion, suggest
installing the glibc-locales package instead.

* guix/ui.scm (install-locale): Do not mention glibc-utf8-locales in the hint
message.  Use glibc-locales instead of glibc-utf8-locales in the provided
example.
