    pack: Add '--localstatedir' option.
    
    * guix/scripts/pack.scm (self-contained-tarball): Add #:localstatedir?
    parameter and honor it.
    (%options, show-help): Add '--localstatedir'.
    (guix-pack): Honor it.
    * gnu/build/install.scm (populate-single-profile-directory): Add
     #:register? parameter and honor it.
    * doc/guix.texi (Binary Installation): Use '--localstatedir' in
    example.
    (Invoking guix pack): Document it.
