auto-completion did not respect the smartparens-mode
defined in the dotfile when disabling/restoring it.
In addition when starting a yasnippet expansion
smartparens-mode was not properly restored resulting
in having smartparens always disabled.
This PR tries to fix both issues. Though judging from
the comments this could kill `hippie-expand` expansion.
However as yasnippet is more common I think this is
to be preferred.
We must always use spacemacs/mplist-get on an modified plist, mixing both
spacemacs/mplist-get and plist-get leads to undefined behavior as soon as a
keyword as multiple keywords.

Add these keywords to macro spacemacs|add-company-backends
:append-hooks controls wether we add the hooks to major mode hook variable
:call-hooks conrols wether we execute the created hooks function right away
Basically for multiple backends setup we want to pass :append-hooks to nil and
:call-hooks to t.
Reverting a buffer could put multiple entries of the same backend in the buffer
local `company-backends` variable.
This is due to the fact that we mutate `company-backends-xxxx-mode` variable
with:
(setq ,backends-var-name
(mapcar 'spacemacs//show-snippets-in-company
,backends-var-name)))
Solution is to add a new variable that won't be mutated when we add the support
for snippets.
When multiple modes where provided to macro spacemacs|add-company-backends along
with variables, only the first mode was taken into account as the `variables`
variable was nil after the first interation on `modes`.
Otherwise, the Haskell layer throws an eager expansion error because
`layers/+lang/haskell/funcs.el`, which calls this macro, is loaded before
`layers/+completion/auto-completion/config.el`, which defines
`spacemacs-default-company-backends`.
Enabling a company backend for a specific mode was a tedious tasks with code
scattered at different locations, one for local variable definitions, one for
company hook function definitions and another where the backends were pushed to
the local variables (which was problematic, since we ended up pushing the same
backends over and over again with `SPC f e R`, pushes have been replaced by
add-to-list calls in the new macro).
All these steps are now put together at one place with the new macro
spacemacs|add-company-backends, check its docstring for more info on its
arguments.
This macro also allows to define arbitrary buffer local variables to tune
company for specific modes (similar to layer variables via a keyword :variables)
The code related to company backends management has been moved to the
auto-completion layer in the funcs.el file. A nice side effect of this move is
that it enforces correct encapsulation of company backends related code. We can
now easily detect if there is some configuration leakage when the
auto-completion layer is not used. But we loose macro expansion at file loading
time (not sue it is a big concern though).
The function spacemacs|enable-auto-complete was never used so it has been
deleted which led to the deletion of the now empty file core-auto-completion.el.
The example in LAYERS.org regarding auto-completion is now out of date and has
been deleted. An example to setup auto-completion is provided in the README.org
file of the auto-completion layer.
Current implementation, #1644, doesn't handle the nested snippet
expansion properly, so you end up with smarparens disabled. Very
annoying.
I improved the implementation to remember the current state of
smartaperns before a top-level snippet expansion and preserve on any
nested snippet expansions.
Also, some housekeeping of the related code:
* Move hook handlers to the `funcs.el`.
* Add comments about yasnippet hooks subtleties relevant to the issue.
Fixes#1512
