Expand sample configuration
If you had the "C-c n" key binding before, the code's evaluation will
throw an error.  You either need to set it to nil beforehand or add the
code and restart Emacs.

BREAKING remove support for hardcoded backlinks
We will find a more robust solution that will be with us for the
long-term.  The gist is that we need links that work even when the user
renames the underlying file.  Only the identifier is a constant: it is
unreasonable to expect that, say, the keywords in the file name of a
note will never change.  As such, writing the full path is not a viable
option.

This, by the way, is the first time a project of mine is busy on GitHub.
You are welcome to use the mirror or the official mailing list.
Whatever works for you (that's why I maintain all those sources, after
all).

Use file attribute for mod time while renaming
This means that if you are renaming "sample.pdf" from 2000-11-31 you
will get an identifier that reflects that date, instead of CURRENT-TIME.

Note that there are other file attributes for time.  Read the doc string
of 'file-attributes'.  If there is demand for it, we can add a user
option, otherwise I feel 'file-attribute-modification-time' is a
reasonable default.

Thanks to Jack Baty for proposing the idea over at the mailing list:
<https://lists.sr.ht/~protesilaos/denote/%3Cm2v8t6b45f.fsf@baty.net%3E>.

Peter helped me make the file-naming scheme more effective.

I asked for permission to disclose this information, as it was done via
