doc: Reorganize "Emacs Interface" node.

* doc/guix.texi (Package Management): Move "Emacs Interface" node to ...
  (Top): ...here, since it is not just about package management.
* doc/emacs.texi: Shift all nodes one level up (@section -> @chapter, etc.).
  Rename "Emacs Usage" node into "Emacs Package Management".  Move "Emacs
  Configuration" node here.

GNU Guix comes with a visual user interface for GNU@tie{}Emacs, known
as ``guix.el''. It can be used for routine package management tasks,
pretty much like the @command{guix package} command (@pxref{Invoking
guix package}). Specifically, ``guix.el'' makes it easy to:

GNU Guix comes with several useful modules (known as ``guix.el'') for
GNU@tie{}Emacs which are intended to make an Emacs user interaction with
Guix convenient and fun.
