Fixed-output derivations for HTTPS downloads depend on GnuTLS. However,
pkg-config, one of GnuTLS’s dependencies, is now available exclusively
over HTTPS, which creates a bootstrapping issue, as reported by
Christopher W Carpenter and others:

Hi!
I pushed the whole patch series with the fix as
05ceb8dcaf480a47cddf94ac979070b76df6556c.
The final patch series uses a new internal helper, ‘guix
perform-download’, instead of trying to bend ‘guix download’ to these
specific needs.
