gnu: abseil-cpp: Update to 20210324.2.

But keep the older variant for Tensorflow.

* gnu/packages/cpp.scm (abseil-cpp-20200923.3): Renamed older variant.
(abseil-cpp): New variable.
* gnu/packages/machine-learning.scm (tensorflow-lite)
[inputs]: Adjust to use the older abseil-cpp-20200923.3.
* gnu/packages/rpc.scm (grpc-1.16.1)[native-inputs]: Likewise.
