bug#75803: Multiple instances of bash-completion on foreign distros

Hello,

I currently run guix on a foreign distro (Fedora 41). I have noticed that 
bash-completion installed in my user profile wont load. The "native" version of 
bash-completion installed through dnf wont find completion scripts specific to 
Guix and also prevents sourcing any later instances of bash-completion. So 
additional completion-scripts wont be able to load.

The workaround is to load the guix script before any system installed version 
of it has a chance to load.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
# ~/.bashrc
[ -f "$HOME/.guix-profile/etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh" ] && \
    . "$HOME/.guix-profile/etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh"

[ -f /etc/bashrc ] && . /etc/bashrc
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

It took me a while to figure out. Perhaps a mention of it in the manual would 
be useful?
