    build: Remove checks for 'nix-instantiate'.
    
    * guix/import/snix.scm (open-nixpkgs): Use "nix-instantiate"
    unconditionally.
    * configure.ac: Remove check for 'nix-instantiate'.
    * guix/config.scm.in (%nix-instantiate): Remove.
    * guix/self.scm (%dependency-variables): Remove '%nix-instantiate'.
    (make-config.scm): Remove it from the generated "config.scm".
    * build-aux/build-self.scm (%dependency-variables, make-config.scm):
    Likewise.
