The last time we changed this was when we consolidated all builds to 5.15, in #25006.
guix: switch to 6.1 kernel headers over 5.15
6.1 is the current longterm release: https://kernel.org/.
Note that using an older version of the kernel headers inside Guix, is
not a "hack" for compatibility, and is explicitly recommended against by glibc:
https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/FAQ#What_version_of_the_Linux_kernel_headers_should_be_used.3F.

Is there a way to just use the latest headers or the latest LTS header, so that this is automatically and implicitly done in a time-machine bump?

I can't see anything obvious that would do that. Currently the only non-versioned package in Guix (linux-kernel-headers), is a pinned, older version of the 5.15.x branch.
