Lxqt 1.1.0 < 17

The newest version of lxqt is 1.1.0, which was released in April [1]. The version of the lxqt metapackage in guix is 17. I think this refers to 0.17.0 which was an older release. Wanted to mention this for whoever wants to update it, since (I think?) guix does not allow downgrades (1.1.0 < 17).
