Version 2.0.0: working system on Void GNU/Linux

There have been A LOT of breaking changes since the last tagged commit
(90b190a).  Not only have I switched away from Debian, but I have also
transitioned to a full-time Emacs user.  To that end, lots of standalone
tools, like `newsboat' or `mutt' have been removed.

The changes in outline:

+ A comprehensive config for Emacs is available.  It encompasses, among
many others, packages for email (`mu4e') and RSS (`elfeed').  I have
also removed the entire MPD setup, replacing it instead with a simpler,
more elegant solution inside of Emacs (`bongo').

+ Tmux has been removed.  Same with every program that is rendered
obsolete by Emacs.

+ Vim stays but is not actively used.

+ Lots of old scripts have either been rewritten or deleted.

+ Other aspects have been considered anew, leading to the removal of
`compton' and `dunst' configurations, as well as the replacement of all
`dmenu' interfaces with `rofi'.

+ There now is a `xinit' set of configurations.  The graphical session
is launched from a TTY.  The initialisation of the X server is automatic
under certain conditions.  This supersedes older settings that assumed
the presence of a graphical Display Manager (e.g. `lightdm').

Despite these major reforms, I consider the transition to both Void
GNU/Linux and Emacs a work-in-progress.  I do, however, feel that the
present state is robust enough to merit a tagged release.
