syl20bnr ebe4c60264 Revert "Defer packages by default using use-package-always-defer"
This reverts commit 29c78ce841 and all other fixes
that have been made afterwards.

The motivation is that use-package is seen by many as a replacement for
`require`. Is use-package always defer the loading of packages then is breaks
this use case, this does not respect POLA so even if it was making Spacemacs
loading faster (up to 3s faster on some startup on my machine) we just cannot
use it, it would be irresponsible. Spacemacs should be easy to use, loading
performance will come with time but it is not a priority.

Restclient layer

Description

This layer provides a REPL-like interface for http requests.

Features:

Install

To use this configuration layer, add it to your ~/.spacemacs. You will need to add restclient to the existing dotspacemacs-configuration-layers list in this file.

Configuration

By default the layer uses restclient. To use org via ob-http by default set the layer variable restclient-use-org to t.

Note that both restclient and ob-http are always installed so you can choose the mode at any time.

Restclient

Any file with an .http extension is opened in a restclient buffer. Full documentation and examples can be found in the package's GitHub Page. Also there is an Emacs Rocks! episode of it.

There is support for org-babel and restclient code blocks, for instance:

#+BEGIN_SRC restclient
  GET http://example.com
#+END_SRC

Keybindings
