guix-install.sh: Export INFOPATH to contain updated guix info-pages
* etc/guix-install.sh (sys_create_init_profile): Export INFOPATH to include
the updated info-pages from ~/.config/guix/current/share/info.  This also makes
sure that both /usr/bin/info and $GUIX_PROFILE/bin/info can read guix info pages
without throwing "no menu item 'guix' in node dir(Top)" error.
