pacman: Simplify support for AUR helpers

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

packages using the [provided instructions][3]. The [aurtools][4] project has a
set of small utilities to make this easier.
```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*:
To enable a Pacman frontend, add the following line to *zpreztorc*, substituting
