Add some Emacs settings

These settings were inspired by this Emacs config:
https://github.com/wasamasa/dotemacs/blob/master/init.org

Some existed already, but this was an opportune time to follow the
instructions on the r/unixporn wiki to split your Xresources and to use
variables: https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/wiki/organizing_xresources

+! so they are not all that useful to me.
+Emacs.menuBar: off
+Emacs.toolBar: off
+Emacs.verticalScrollBars: off

+! Switching colors from the default background to the one in my Emacs
+! theme gives me a headache. It is much nicer to have my preferred
+! color from the start. This color has been defined in my main
+! .Xdefaults.
+Emacs.background: backgroundColor
+
+! These settings do not match the ones in my Emacs theme, but they are
+! closer to the ones in my SVG mode-line theme.

+Emacs.mode-line.attributeBackground: backgroundColor
+Emacs.mode-line.attributeBox: unspecified
