database: work around guile-sqlite3 bug preventing statement reset

guile-sqlite3 provides statement caching, making it unnecessary for sqlite to
keep re-preparing statements that are frequently used.  Unfortunately it
doesn't quite emulate the semantics of sqlite_finalize properly, because it
doesn't cause a commit if the statement being finalized is the last "active"
statement (see https://notabug.org/guile-sqlite3/guile-sqlite3/issues/12).  We
work around this by wrapping sqlite-finalize with our own version that ensures
sqlite-reset is called, which does The Right Thing™.

* guix/store/database.scm (sqlite-finalize): new procedure that shadows the
  sqlite-finalize from (sqlite3).

;; As of guile-sqlite3 0.1.0, cached statements aren't reset when
;; sqlite-finalize is invoked on them (see
;; https://notabug.org/guile-sqlite3/guile-sqlite3/issues/12). This can
;; cause problems with automatically-started transactions, so we work around
;; it by wrapping sqlite-finalize so that sqlite-reset is always called.
;; This always works, because resetting a statement twice has no adverse
;; effects. We can remove this once the fixed guile-sqlite3 is widespread.
