spacemacs/report-issue opens a buffer prepopulated with a template and some
system information. The buffer is markdown-mode augmented with a keybinding to
send the contents to github.
Or if that doesn't work, the text remains in the buffer to be manually copied
and pasted. This makes the error reporting more robust: right after the user has
experienced one bug is the worst time to manifest another one.
This commit also rewrites spacemacs//describe-last-keys-string because I
couldn't figure out how else to prevent view-lossage from burying the new
REPORT_SPACEMACS_ISSUE buffer. Suggestions welcome.
If emacs is launched with -q option and spacemacs files are loaded via
--eval option, then spacemacs fails due to depending `after-init-time'
variable being set properly which is done only when emacs is launched
without -q. This patch is to remove this dependence so that spacemacs
launched with -q can still work. This is done by introducing
`spacemacs-initialized' variable which is set properly regardless of
which command line options are present or absent.
New package :step 'bootstrap', this step happens before 'pre' packages.
A new layer names 'spacemacs-bootstrap' gather all the ':step bootstrap'
packages. This layer is special and is always the first element of
the variable 'configuration-layer--layers' which assure that all
bootstrap packages are configured first.
This new layer leverages the configuration layer system, removes the
clutter of package installations in the function 'spacemacs/init' and
isolate the bootstrap packages in one place.
Add function that can be used to defer execution until after
dotspacemacs/user-config is run. If it has already been run the function
executes immediately.
Initially this is only used for deferring the definitions of
transient-states.
People transitioning from Vim could be surprised if we set these
variable to t by default, so setting them to nil respects better
the POLA principle.

Background: `C-i` and `TAB` are the same keycode for historic reasons.
With the current settings, evil [1] and evil-jumper [2] associate
`jump-forward` to `C-i` (==`TAB`), what overrides bindings set to
`TAB` (==`C-i`) in terminal mode, like `orc-cycle`. To fix this,
this commit:
- Set `evil-want-C-i-jump` to `nil`, to prevent `evil` and `evil-jumper`
to use the `C-i` (==`TAB`) keycode.
- Remove the spacemacs' code that bind `jump-forward` to `TAB`(==`C-i`)
The current spacemacs code already rebind `jump-forward` to the GUI-only
`<C-i>` keycode.

Please check this, but this does the trick for me to fix#4057. The
reason I'm not sure about it is I don't know what the purpose of the
do-after-display-system-init code is. It doesn't seem necessary for me,
and I'm testing this on the GUI version.
Note that any non Emacsy command line parameter and non processed
command line parameter (that is unknown from Spacemacs) will hide the
home buffer. This should be good enough.
Fixes#4057
Add macro to wrap things that depend on the display being
initialized (and a frame active), such as getting the font. Advise the
`server-create-window-system-frame` function which is called by
emacsclient when creating a window-system frame. This is only run the
first time a frame is created, so the advice removes itself.
