Mohammed Yaseen Mowzer d17d18ad81 emacs: Link subdirs.el into emacs-packages-deps
Emacs loads all the elisp files in the top-level of the site-lisp
directory. However some packages (e.g. mu4e) put their elisp files in a
subdirectory of site-lisp. Emacs will not load these packages unless
subdirs.el is present.

This commit links the subdirs.el file from the emacs package into the
emacs-package-deps package so that packages that put their elisp files
in a subdirectory of site-lisp are loaded.

/*
# Usage
`emacsWithPackages` takes a single argument: a function from a package
set to a list of packages (the packages that will be available in
Emacs). For example,
```
emacsWithPackages (epkgs: [ epkgs.evil epkgs.magit ])
```
All the packages in the list should come from the provided package
set. It is possible to add any package to the list, but the provided
set is guaranteed to have consistent dependencies and be built with
the correct version of Emacs.
# Overriding
`emacsWithPackages` inherits the package set which contains it, so the
correct way to override the provided package set is to override the
set which contains `emacsWithPackages`. For example, to override
`emacsPackagesNg.emacsWithPackages`,
```
let customEmacsPackages =
emacsPackagesNg.overrideScope' (self: super: {
# use a custom version of emacs
emacs = ...;
# use the unstable MELPA version of magit
magit = self.melpaPackages.magit;
});
in customEmacsPackages.emacsWithPackages (epkgs: [ epkgs.evil epkgs.magit ])
```
