gnu: facter: Embed more absolute references.

* gnu/packages/admin.scm (facter)[arguments]: Rename the
‘embed-iproute-reference’ phase to ‘embed-absolute-references’ and make
it generic.  Implicit inputs like coreutils are captured.  References
depend on what's found, not a hard-coded list.
[inputs]: Add dmidecode, inetutils, pciutils, and util-linux.
