Thanh Vuong a6d364e0f2 [spacemacs-evil] add evil-collection 
It is impossible to ignore `evil-collection` anymore. `evil-magit` has been
deprecated recently and moved to `evil-collection`.

It will save time and effort for both Spacemacs and Evil to share and contribute
to `evil-collection` imo.

However I strongly prefer Spacemacs binding scheme over evil-collection's one.
We should only pick what we need from `evil-collection`.

This PR add mechanism to embrace `evil-collection` and apply it to shell layer (`vterm`)
and git layer.

Note about evil-collection

evil-collection is a collection of Evil bindings for the parts of Emacs that Evil does not cover properly by default, such as help-mode, M-x calendar, Eshell and more.

However, there is a large overlap of features provided by both Spacemacs and evil-collection. For the same feature, Spacemacs implementation is often better than evil-collection.

That's said, when evil-collection is used carefully we can reduce the amount of effort wasted on reinventing the wheel on Spacemacs side.

Spacemacs provides a layer variable spacemacs-evil-collection-allowed-list for users and layer hackers to enable evil-collection on their desired modes.

For users, if you want to enable evil-collection on eglot, then you will need to declare this layer with it variable explicitly:

  (spacemacs-evil :variables
                      spacemacs-evil-collection-allowed-list
                     '(eglot))

For Spacemacs hackers check out git layer to see how we apply evil-collection to magit.
