This snap is built via the build.snapcraft.io service from the
snapcraft.yaml definition at https://github.com/alexmurray/emacs-snap to
ensure source and build transparency.

The snap offers both the 'gtk' and 'pgtk' variants in separate snap tracks -
the 'latest' track offers the gtk variant whereas the 'pgtk' track offers the
pgtk variant of emacs.
