The release should not contain any grafts, if we can help it.

On the wip-next-release branch, I've simply updated zstd to 1.4.9:

https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/log/?h=wip-next-release

I do agree that updating this program 5 versions in a graft was perhaps
too much.

We should always try to cherry-pick bug-fix patches when grafting.

Otherwise the risk of breakage is too high. At least, these types of
patches should be reviewed on guix-patches. Léo, can you send them to
guix-patches in the future?

Sometimes it is okay to update things in a graft, but it depends on the
situation.
