This allows us to combine several transformations on a given package, in particular '--with-git-url' and '--with-branch'.

(evaluate-git-replacement-specs): Likewise. (transform-package-inputs): Adjust accordingly and use 'package-input-rewriting/spec'. (transform-package-inputs/graft): Likewise. (transform-package-source-branch, transform-package-source-commit): Use 'package-input-rewriting/spec'. (transform-package-source-git-url): Likewise, and adjust the REPLACEMENTS alist accordingly. (options->transformation): Iterate over OPTS instead of over %TRANSFORMATIONS.

("options->transformation, with-git-url + with-branch"): New test.
