command line. Suggested by Kete <kete@ninthfloor.org>.
* guix/scripts/package.scm (%options): Adapt option processors to accept and

optional. The upgrade option processor deletes (upgrade . #f) from the
alist before adding a new entry.

(%options): Likewise.
(guix-package)[process-actions]: Add 'current-generation-number',
'display-and-delete', and 'delete-generation'. Add support for
'--delete-generations', and reindent the code.
