* LaTeX: improved i18n support and documentation
- Added a new layer config variable `latex-build-engine`, a thin wrapper of
`TeX-engine`:
- For better support of non-european character set rendering, `xetex` is
chosen when it's found on PATH, and when eithe `chinese` or `japanese`
layer is enabled
- Added a new layer config variable `latex-enable-preview`:
- When non-nil, `auto-revert-mode` is added to `doc-view-mode-hook`
- Previously this is described in documentation but requires users to set it
manually
- Documentation:
- Added a section that lists are layer config variables
- Improved all documentation examples, s.t. they are valid elisp forms to be
evaluated directly
- Improved the section on backend:
- Emphsized that LSP layer is always preferred
- Provided information on installing the language server
- Added the default value for layer config variable, `latex-nofil-env`
* minor edits
- Updated CHANGELOG.develop
- Renamed `latex-enable-preview` to `latex-refresh-preview`
- Replaced a fuzzy intra-link in documentation with a proper link

AUCTeX is weird: It reports major-mode as latex-mode (since TeX-latex-mode is
applied as an :override advice on the basic built-in latex-mode), but its mode
hook is LaTeX-mode-hook, not latex-mode-hook (which is only run by the built-in
latex-mode). Since bind-map uses the value of major-mode, we must pass
latex-mode to spacemacs|define-jump-handlers. But then
spacemacs//init-jump-handlers-latex-mode gets added to latex-mode-hook, which
never gets run. So we must manualy add it to LaTeX-mode-hook.
[latex] Use dumb-jump as primary jump handler
Otherwise, the default is used, which prioritizes evil-goto-definition over
dumb-jump-go. Dumb Jump tends to Just Work, while evil-goto-definition doesn't
handle LaTeX very well, at least not without a TAGS table.
[latex] Update CHANGELOG.develop
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backends over and over again with `SPC f e R`, pushes have been replaced by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.
Add the latex-enable-folding variable which turns on TeX-fold-mode and
adds some related bindings.
Reorganize the layer:
1. Move reftex into packages.el and delete the extensions file.
2. Don't duplicate the binding of keys. Use a loop to bind in tex-mode
and latex-mode. Then just add the additional latex-mode bindings
Helm seems to treat "!" specially in pattern matching, so having a ! in
the pattern string when traversing directories is problematic. This
change fixes#2737, because as far as I can tell "+" has no special
meaning in a helm pattern.
Of course, we can choose a different character, but I'm fond of "+" as
representing "more layers here".
