guix: update LIEF from 0.13.2 to 0.16.x #30520

Updating our python-lief package in Guix (as well as the package installed in the CI), would be useful for:
- Enabling the RELOC_SECTION test in test-security-check.py.
- Using https://lief.re//doc/latest/api/python/elf.html#aarch64-feature to add checks. i.e in #24123.
- We could update/extend existing checks, using new features, i.e: https://lief.re/doc/stable/api/python/macho.html#lief.MachO.Binary.support_arm64_ptr_auth.

Started down this path in #30084 (comment), along with other issues I may have found (unsure) but didn't push there. May take a look at continuing it if no one is already doing so.

I've opened #32431 to partially address this issue, it only bumps the version to 0.16.5 without implementing the other suggested improvements here.
