X.D.Extending claims to index all of the contrib library, but this was
not really the case. While most modules where indeed indexed, some
notable ones were missing from this list. Since we're pointing users to
this quite prominently, this is something that needs to be fixed.
This adds the function `killOthers`, which kills all unfocused windows
on the current workspace.
As discussed in the PR itself [1], the module suffix `WithAll` is not
quite optimal at this point, as we are acting on window _groups_ and not
necessarily just all window on a workspace. However, in order to keep
this commit atomic, this consideration is postponed until another day.

This implements window swallowing on top of SubLayouts; the matched
windows are simply tabbed together instead of one actually being
swallowed. This provides an improved experience for people using
SubLayouts, as the parent window is still accessible.
Done as part of ZuriHac 2021.

It's often difficult to make contrib modules work together. When one
depends on a functionality of another, it is often necessary to expose
lots of low-level functions and hooks and have the user combine these
into a complex configuration that works. This is error-prone, and
arguably a bad UX in general.
This commit presents a simple solution to that problem inspired by
"extensible state": extensible config. It allows contrib modules to
store custom configuration values inside XConfig. This lets them create
custom hooks, ensure they hook into xmonad core only once, and possibly
other use cases I haven't thought of yet.
This requires changes to xmonad core: https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad/pull/294
A couple examples of what this gives us:
* [X.H.RescreenHook](https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad-contrib/pull/460)
can be made safe to apply multiple times, making it composable and
usable in other contrib modules like X.H.StatusBar
* `withSB` from X.H.StatusBar can also be made safe to apply multiple
times, and we can even provide an API [similar to what we had
before](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-contrib-0.16/docs/XMonad-Hooks-DynamicLog.html#v:statusBar)
if we want (probably not, consistency with the new dynamic status bars
of https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad-contrib/pull/463 is more important)
* The [X.H.EwmhDesktops refactor](https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad-contrib/pull/399)
can possibly be made without breaking the `ewmh`/`ewmhFullscreen` API.
And we will finally be able to have composable EWMH hooks.

XMonad.Hooks.Minimize handles both minimize and restore
messages. Handling restore messages was already done in
RestoreMinimized, which this module intends to replace.
Most signifigant changes are use unversioned links to external html,
fix a couple of key binding examples, and double quotes that should
have been single.
This adds XMonad.Util.Cursor, which defines a function that allows setting
the default mouse cursor. This can be useful for (for example) gnomeConfig,
to ensure that the root cursor is changed from X_cursor to left_ptr.
