build-system/texlive: Change default format to pdftex

Browse source 
LuaTeX has a bug where sometimes it corrupts the heap and aborts. This
causes the build of texlive packages to fail at random. The problem is
being tracked at https://issues.guix.gnu.org/48064.

While a fix isn't found, switch the default TeX format (and consequently
also the engine) to pdftex to avoid the issue.

* guix/build-system/texlive.scm (texlive-build): Change default value of
the ‘tex-format’ key parameter to “pdftex”.
