gnu: shepherd@0.9: Use 'guile-3.0-latest' to address memory leak.
Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/58631>.

Previously, shepherd's heap would grow roughly linearly in the number of
context switches (delimited continuations being captured).  For example,
if shepherd spawned services that logged a lot of data, it would
context-switch a lot, leading to relatively quick heap growth.

* gnu/packages/admin.scm (shepherd-0.9)[inputs, native-inputs]: Replace
'guile-3.0' with 'guile-3.0-latest'.
