The attached patch implements this behavior.  However, because I use
@code{previous-generation-number} to determine which generation to diff
with, the following will not provide a diff as expected:

  guix package --list-generations=42,41,40

Any ideas on how to fix this?  Otherwise I'll give it another go over
the weekend.

Kind regards,
Roel Janssen
