pacman: Simplify support for AUR helpers

Browse Source 
There are a number of things happening here.

- Extra support for yaourt has been removed
- Docs have been updated to explicitly call out that AUR helpers are not
  officially supported
- aurutils has been suggested to make common operations easier
- A utility function called aurget (similar to aurfetch from aurutils)
  has been added to make cloning AUR repos easier.

Fixes #1531

It is possible to use a Pacman frontend with the pacman aliases provided by this

Please note that installing packages with an AUR Helper is not officially
supported by Archlinux. It is currently recommended to manually build AUR
packages using the [provided instructions][3]. The [aurtools][4] project has a
set of small utilities to make this easier.
To enable a Pacman frontend, add the following line to *zpreztorc*, substituting
`pacman_frontend` with the name of the frontent:
```sh
zstyle ':prezto:module:pacman' frontend 'pacaur'
```
If you have enabled color globally in *zpreztorc*, you may disable it for certain
commands.
To disable `yaourt` highlighting, add the following line to *zpreztorc*:
```sh
zstyle ':prezto:module:pacman:yaourt' color 'no'
zstyle ':prezto:module:pacman' frontend 'pacman_frontend'
