gnu: guix-emacs: Reword docstrings.
The current documentation strings cause compilation warnings; thus improve them. * gnu/packages/aux-files/emacs/guix-emacs.el (guix-emacs-autoload-regexp) (guix-emacs-find-autoloads, guix-emacs-autoload-packages): Make do without quoting 'autoload'. Reserve quotation to variables and functions.
