gnu: gnome-calculator: Use absolute paths for exec.
The search provider would fail because after being spawned from D-Bus, it
would try to exec itself using argv[0]. However that was not an absolute
path
and since the binary lives in libexec and so does not appear in PATH, it
would
fail.
This patch uses /proc/self/exe instead of argv[0]. It hardcodes the
gnome-calculator command as well to prevent similar issues.
* gnu/packages/gnome.scm (gnome-calculator)[arguments]<#:phases>: Add phase.
Fixes: guix/guix#9462
