The apropos software is useful to get a list of manpages matching a
description or to get a list of all manpages. The latter feature is
used by Emacs to get manpage completion (`M-x man`).
To have apropos working, a database of all available manpages must be
built with mandb. This is what this commits does.
A similar change was done for NixOS:

Running `zplug install` will always product output, even if there is
nothing to do.
Gating it behind a `zplug check` eliminates that output when there is
nothing to do, and is recommended in the zplug README.
Adds a new `keybindings` option to the `vscode` configuration.
It contains a list of key bindings, which will be written to
`%vscode-dir%/User/keybindings.json`.

The previous implementation would allow variables to sneak into the
file names. This commit makes sure the resulting target file path
exactly matches the expected path.
The kakoune editor has a plugin mechanism and several plugins are
already packaged under `pkgs.kakounePlugins`. However, adding these
packages to `home.packages` is not enough: the `kakoune` package needs
to be configured with the list of plugins to include, so that they get
sourced on start-up.
We add a `programs.kakoune.plugins` option, analogous to
`programs.vim.plugins`.
The change is backwards compatible since `pkgs.kakoune` is defined as
wrapKakoune kakoune-unwrapped { };
and `wrapKakoune` defaults the list of plugins to empty.

The git-send-email [0] script uses StartTLS if `smtpEncryption` is set
to `tls`, which can break services that don't support StartTLS.

We were passing the separators for the `show-whitespaces` highlighter
verbatim. This was problematic in case one wanted to use, spaces,
quotes or `%` as separators since the resulting kakoune configuration
would be invalid.
According to kakoune's docs, the separator has to be one character
long, so we can use a simple rule for escaping them. It is possible
that people has been working this around by passing, e.g. `"' '"` as
separator in order to get a space (i.e., escaped explicitly by the
user), so we just let longer strings be used verbatim.

Instead of using several regex assertions, just state precisely what we
are producing. While the regex was technically more flexible, since it
would ignore differences in whitespace, it was also harder to read/edit.
This test started failing as described in the code comment. May be
related to Nixpkgs updating Fontconfig from version 2.12 to 2.13. See
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/73795.
The option to remove the default keybindings by setting the
`programs.qutebrowser.enableDefaultKeybindings` variable to `false`
had a list wrapped around the `config.py` line. This would cause a
type coercion error.

Emacs populates 'exec-path' at launch from the 'PATH' environment
variable. Likewise, the emacs derivation from nixpkgs populates
'load-path' from the 'NIX_PROFILES' variable. As neither of these are
available by default in the systemd user manager, revert to the
previous behavior of launching the Emacs daemon from a login shell.

Add 'services.emacs.socketActivation.enable' for generating an
'emacs.socket' systemd unit.
Emacs since version 26 has supported socket activation, whereby an
external process manager such as systemd listens on a socket and passes
it to the Emacs daemon when the manager launches it. This improves
startup time of the user session and avoids launching the daemon when not
needed, for example when launching the user session via SSH.
This implementation hard-codes the socket path to the default for the
version of 'programs.emacs.finalPackage', because systemd does not
perform shell expansion in the socket unit's 'ListenStream' parameter
and it seems like an advanced use-case to change the socket path. Shell
expansion would be desirable as the socket path usually resides in
directories such as $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR or $TMPDIR.
Tests were added to verify behavior in the following cases:
- Emacs service with socket activation disabled
- Emacs 26 with socket activation enabled
- Emacs 27 with socket activation enabled
