Emacs: modus-themes version 4 demo

Raw link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kPNMHrF4Lq8

In this video, I demonstrate how the new theme palettes work with the inclusion of the abstraction of “semantic colour mappings”. The user can now override every single entry in the palette, thus refashioning every aspect of the theme.

This is a flexible and powerful mechanism that gives users near complete control over the looks of the theme. As such, I am deprecating user options that produced colour variations, as those were not flexible and made the code base much more complex.

The new version remains in development (check the version-4 branch). I plan to merge it into main in the coming days and formalise the release by the end of December 2022 or the beginning of January 2023.
