guix git authenticate: fix expected output.
The first version of the 3f9b38739f
patch ("manual: Add section about building GNU Boot.)" and the GNU
Boot 0.1 RC4 announce have the following guix git authenticate
command:
    $ guix git authenticate $(git rev-parse HEAD) \
      "E23C 26A5 DEEE C5FA 9CDD  D57A 57BC 26A3 6871 16F6" \
      -k origin/keyring

This is wrong as HEAD is not an introductory commit and it can only
work if it is signed by the "E23C 26A5 DEEE C5FA 9CDD D57A 57BC 26A3
6871 16F6" key which defeats many of the important features of guix
git authenticate like the ability to delegate trust to multiple
people.

This command was probably used by me during early tests as I didn't
have neox's key to sign commit and that my key was invalid (see the
commit dde4223088 "Fix
.guix-authorizations for Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli." for more details)
and it was probably kept as it appeared to work.

Since the expected way to use guix git authenticate is with an
introductory commit, the output of the command is then predictable and
it should be exactly the same than the one described in the GNU Boot
manual.
