No objection for a face, but I don't think such sorting should be the
default one.  I think it is done in "package.el" just because there is
no way to display only installed or obsolete packages there.

But as in "guix.el" we have "M-x guix-installed-packages" and "M-x
guix-obsolete-packages", in my opinion it would be better to leave the
current sorting by name.

Besides a user can easily sort a list by "Installed" column if he wants.
But of course if most people find such sort preferable, I will comply.

Here is the patch for a new face.  OK to push? (I'm never sure in a
commit message).
