Currently 'guix build' supports '--target=' option to allow cross-compilation,
but 'guix environment' doe not. Sometimes it would be nice to peek at the
environment that 'guix build' creates.

Concrete example:

When debugging 're2' cross-compilation error I used the following command
to build a package:

./pre-inst-env guix build --check re2 --target=alpha-unknown-linux-gnu --no-grafts

I was not sure what does g++ vs. TARGET-g++ means in guix.

Would be nice to have an ability to get exactly build environment as:

./pre-inst-env guix environment re2 --target=alpha-unknown-linux-gnu --no-grafts

Thanks!
