This adds documentation for the new EDSL, as well as small fixes to
existing docs.
Importantly, I've added myself as a maintainer of the file (even though
we don't really care about this at this point) and updated the
copyright; the changes seem large enough to warrant this.
Some panels—such as polybar—require _NET_DESKTOP_VIEWPORT support in
order to know which workspace is on which monitor. They are then able
to only show workspaces defined on the same output as the bar with just
X11 properties.

The testing repo was not a good location for them, and is now
deprecated. They are now in `scripts/build`, and will be documented
in the main repo's `INSTALL.md`.
`ManageDebug` was continuing to report in the `logHook` even after
the `manageHook` was done. In diagnosing this, I discovered that
the original code was using a tuple of `Bool`s and not even a
comment about which meant what.
The code now uses a proper pair type, and dedicated `data`s for
the two flags that make it clear what each means. This also fixed
the bug, so apparently I had the `Bool`s confused somewhere.
I also took the chance to clarify the documentation a little (a
misleading "persistent", since it doesn't use persistent XS) and
a few more cleanups. Also, it now logs all `manageHook` runs
before the `logHook` in case multiple windows are opened.
+ Prefer GHC 8.10.7 to 8.10.4, as versions seem to have stabilised now.
+ Add support for Stackage LTS 19, which ships with GHC 9.0.2.
+ Since a new version of 9.2 has been released, prefer 9.2.2 over 9.2.1.
Also, explicitly pass -XCPP to hlint; see [1].

Since users should not use these functions, anyways, separating them out
seems like a good idea. Plus, one now does not need to scroll over them
to get to the dynamic scratchpad functionality (people may stop when
seeing "DEPRECATED" signs everywhere).
With the extensible state machinery in place[1], we are now able to
seamlessly integrate dynamic scratchpad functionality into
X.U.NamedScratchpad. This is one step into the direction of having a
single scratchpad implementation that can "do anything".

(X.U.NamedScratchpad: Use ExtensibleState to store scratchpads)
Instead of using the scratchpads that the user specifies (as this will
realistically just be "all of them"), create some extensible state for
the scratchpads to reside in.
To ensure that this is done in a backwards compatible way, function
signatures did not change and they instead just ignore the list of
scratchpads given to them and the initialisation is done in the
manageHook, which users already have to use anyways.
We do not ship the nix flake in the release tarball, so it does not make
sense to include NIX.md in there either; at least for now.
Fixes: 4ca46c2414 (Add NIX.md)
There are multiple ways one could use XMonad with nix, so a separate
file for documenting all of this seems appropriate. E.g., when it
contains the respective installation instructions (e.g, "normally" as
instructed in the NixOS wiki, via stack, via flake, ...) we could link
to it from INSTALL.md.
For now it's a good place to document the new `develop.nix`
functionality.
