Now that we have `XMonad.Util.ExtensibleConf`, users can comfortably use the `ewmh` combinator and still customize workspace ordering, filter out scratchpads and expose altered workspace names. To make this all work nicely, we introduce not one, but two configuration options: a sort/filter function and a rename function. This is because renaming and sorting in one go makes it hard (perhaps even impossible) to decide which workspace to switch to upon receipt of a _NET_CURRENT_DESKTOP request from a pager or wmctrl/xdotool. (The only reason this wasn't a problem before is because one could pass the renaming function to `ewmhDesktopsLogHookCustom` only, not `ewmhDesktopsEventHookCustom`, which is a confusing hack as can be seen in the related closed pull requests.)
