gexp: Store compilers in a hash table for O(1) lookup.

* guix/gexp.scm (<gexp-compiler>)[predicate]: Remove.
[type]: New field.
(%gexp-compilers): Turn into a hash table.
(register-compiler!, lookup-compiler, lookup-expander): Adjust
accordingly.
(define-gexp-compiler): Replace 'predicate' by 'record-type'.
(derivation-compiler, local-file-compiler, plain-file-compiler)
(computed-file-compiler, program-file-compiler, scheme-file-compiler)
(file-append-compiler): Adjust accordingly.
* guix/packages.scm (package-compiler, origin-compiler): Likewise.
