perform-download: Ensure reading never evaluates code.

Since this is used to implement the "download" and "git-download" builtins,
which are run outside of any chroot, this is trusted code with respect to the
user-supplied strings it reads.

* guix/scripts/perform-download.scm (read/safe): new procedure.
  (perform-download, perform-git-download): use it.
  (guix-perform-download): explicitly set 'read-eval?' to #f and
  'read-hash-procedures' to '().  #f is the default value of 'read-eval?' on
  startup, but set it anyway to be certain.
