gnu: chez-scheme: Fix use of "/bin/sh".
The unsuccessful attempt to execute "/bin/sh" by Chez Scheme's 'process'
function seems to have caused parts of the Chez Scheme test suite to
have been silently skipped. The issue was exposed by the upcoming
changes to Racket's build system.

* gnu/packages/patches/chez-scheme-bin-sh.patch,
gnu/packages/patches/racket-chez-scheme-bin-sh.patch: New patches.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add them.
* gnu/packages/racket.scm (%racket-origin)[patches]: Update accordingly.
* gnu/packages/chez.scm (chez-scheme)[origin]<patches>: Likewise.

+Subject: [PATCH] patch s_process for "/bin/sh" on Guix
+
+If:
+
+    1. The nonstandard but ubiquitous macro `_PATH_BSHELL` from
+       <paths.h> is defined; and
+
+    2. The path specified by `_PATH_BSHELL` exists;
+
+then `s_process` will call `execl` with the file specified by
+`_PATH_BSHELL` instead of "/bin/sh".
+
+Checking that the path specified by `_PATH_BSHELL` exists safeguards
+against obscure errors if attempting to use stand-alone executables
+built by the patched Racket in non-Guix envoronments.
+
+This patch does not change the behavior of `s_system`, which relies
+on `system` from the C library.
