build-aux: Disable file port name canonicalization in a few places.
I'm assuming this doesn't have any meaningful effect, and it seems to reduce the number of readlink calls by a lot. * build-aux/build-self.scm (build-program): Set %file-port-name-canonicalization to #f. (build): Ditto. * build-aux/compile-as-derivation.scm: Ditto. Change-Id: If43415c46c3911e84c76d1a9828b9c417a140a1b
