This makes it easy to declaratively manage the color scheme for
kakoune via a nix package in your `~/.config/kak/colors` folder. The
color scheme can then be declaratively selected by name using the
existing Home Manager option `programs.kakoune.config.colorScheme`.
These (and the `*MD` functions apart from `literalMD`) are now no-ops
in nixpkgs and serve no purpose other than to add additional noise and
potentially mislead people into thinking unmarked DocBook documentation
will still be accepted.
Note that if backporting changes including documentation to 23.05,
the `mdDoc` calls will need to be re-added.

This process was automated by [my fork of `nix-doc-munge`]. All
conversions were automatically checked to produce the same DocBook
result when converted back, modulo minor typographical/formatting
differences on the acceptable-to-desirable spectrum.

Currently, dot directories and XDG base directories are used
inconsistently in the Home Manager option declarations. This creates
ambiguity for the user as to where the location of the file should be
albeit this is rarely encountered in practice as it is sufficient to
read upstream documentation. The rationale is to make declarations
consistent and make a clear distinction between hardcoded and modular
specifications.
References to ~/.config in relevant nixpkgs modules were untouched as
the location is hardcoded upstream[1]. Furthermore, modules of
programs which do not follow XDG specifications were also untouched.
Generalization of tilde(~) expansions to $HOME were also considered,
however there isn't sufficient rationale despite the use of $HOME
being more universal. The expansion is standardized in POSIX[2] and is
essentially portable across all shells, thus there is no pragmatic
value to introducing the change.

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.

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.
