v2.0.0--Moovement

Lots of change has come in the last 8-10 months. I went to France, politics changed irrevocably, and most importantly this repo got even more robust. I've updated some infrastructure and layout, fixed a lot of bugs, and introduced some new time-saving or ease-of-use features.

Get ready to "move it, move it" when you see that cow appear on your shell startup, because things keep getting better for this code !

How to Update

Due to the changes involving submodule relocation and symlink targeting, the update process is multi-step this time.

cd ~/Dotfiles
updateDotfiles
git clean -ffdx
git submodule update --init
rm ~/.vimrc # because it is now inside ~/.vim, you don't need the dangling symlink
./bootstrap.sh
reload

This release covers surprisingly few changes, most of which are only felt by me as the maintainer, but it greatly improves my experience!
