emacs: improve setup hook
517df5a 
- Add packages installed in a sub-directory of site-lisp, such as
  mu4e, to EMACSLOADPATH.

- Add ELPA packages to EMACSLOADPATH.

- Add each package only once to EMACSLOADPATH. Before, each package
  would typically be added twice for each transitive dependency
  leading to a huge variable for a package having many dependencies.

Fixed #78680

(cherry picked from commit 2d2de74)

Seems like a duplicate of #86344?

The current version in master causes EMACSLOADPATH variables like this: https://gist.github.com/Xe/5ab74c47227174908b50f6c60502e9e4#file-sh-cfg-L23

This patch seems to prevent that from happening for whatever reason.

I'm confused, have you found a problem with EMACSLOADPATH in master? I tried to fix the problem with duplicate entries in EMACSLOADPATH and what I came up with has been in master for a while and in release-20.03 since #86344 got merged.

erm, sorry, the current version in release-20.03 is what causes the quadratic amount of stuff in EMACSLOADPATH.

Ah, OK. Then I think this PR can be closed, the two commits that are fixing the EMACSLOADPATH problem are already in the release-20.03 branch and should be available in the next successful channel build.

Indeed, this PR only includes one of the necessary patches and if you look at the changes you'll notice that it is actually undoing the necessary d3eeaec commit 😀
