* `X.A.DynamicWorkspaceGroups`: TopicSpace support
This adds `viewTopicGroup` and a corresponding prompt. This is similar
to `viewWSGroup`, but it calls `switchTopic` instead of `W.greedyView`,
inorder to run the topic action on the workspace.
This is a convenience module in order to have less import noise. It
re-exports the following:
a) Commonly used modules in full (Data.Foldable, Data.Applicative, and
so on); though only those that play nicely with each other, so that
XMonad.Prelude can be imported unqualified without any problems.
This prevents things like `Prelude.(.)` and `Control.Category.(.)`
fighting with each other.
b) Helper functions that don't necessarily fit in any other module;
e.g., the often used abbreviation `fi = fromIntegral`.
The silent error `user error (createFontSet)` would break certain
modules (like the prompt) by simply not showing anything.
Pango 1.44 dropped support for FreeType in favor of HarfBuzz, losing
support for traditional BDF/PCF bitmap fonts. Hence, some distributions
don't ship `xorg-fonts-misc` anymore.

Ever since ce5aae5403 TopicSpace uses the
history implementation of X.H.WorkspaceHistory instead of something
hand-rolled. This, however, did not go far enough; at this point, we
can deprecate essentially all of TopicSpace's redundant history handling
and explicitly tell users to use the more modular X.H.WorkspaceHistory
instead.
The ppVisibleNoWindows was added in #241 but none of the modules that
rename/mangle workspace names were updated (or didn't exist at the
time). This fixes this.

If this is not done, trying to select another window with the mouse when
the treeselect window is up, the X server executes a pointer/keyboard
grab until `allowEvents' is called; which it never is and so both remain
frozen indefinitely.

This is needed because the cache directory is now a part of XConf, which
is calculated once on startup and hence any recalculation would be
fragile.
Some internal functions that are not exposed (like writeHistory) were
also changed to accept that directory as an argument.
Starting with 5240116f3c we only support
GHC versions 8.4.4 and up (more precisely, the GHC version associated
with stackage lts-12 and up). The imports in question are now in
Prelude and need not be imported explicitly.
* Add Emacs-style Prefix handling
* Update CHANGES.md
* Add helper tests for prefix type
* Add docstrings.
* Fix handling of repeated prefix when we fall-back with no binding.
* Add a caveat about nested prefix binding
Because the there is a hard limit on the number of items in the topic
history now, it makes sense to first cons on the topic and then filter
the result (so setLastFocusedTopic can be used to exclude certain topics
from ever entering the history).
