lint: 'github-url' checker gracefully handles networking errors.

Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/49114>.
Reported by Tobias Geerinckx-Rice <me@tobias.gr>.

* guix/lint.scm (call-with-networking-fail-safe, with-networking-fail-safe):
Move higher in the file.
* guix/lint.scm (check-github-url): Wrap call to
'follow-redirects-to-github' in 'with-networking-fail-safe'.
