+ Several improvements to C++11 indentation and syntax highlighting.

C contends with Haskell and Ruby for my favorite language. That said, it's more
accurate to say I write C, but a C++ feature or three.
** Module Flags
+ ~+irony~ Enable Irony as a backend for code completion, syntax checking, and
eldoc support. This must be disabled to use LSP or another backend.
+ ~+rtags~ Enable rtags integration. A daemon will be spawned the first time you
open a C/C++/ObjC buffer, if one hasn't already.
The module provides nominal support for Objective-C, which I really only use to
inspect generated glue code for iOS mobile apps. Otherwise, I prefer Swift.

+ rtags

+ rtags (if ~+rtags~ is enabled)
** irony-server
Irony powers the code completion, eldoc and syntax checking systems.
After installing its dependencies, run ~M-x irony-install-server~ in Emacs.
*** MacOS
Due to linking issues, MacOS users must compile irony-server manually:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :tangle (if (doom-system-os 'macos) "yes")
#+BEGIN_SRC sh
brew install cmake
brew install llvm # 1gb+ installation! May take a while!

*** Arch Linux
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :tangle (if (doom-system-os 'arch) "yes")
sudo pacman --needed --noconfirm -S clang cmake
#+BEGIN_SRC sh
pacman -S clang cmake
#+END_SRC
Then run ~M-x irony-install-server~ in Emacs.
** rtags
Code navigation requires an [[https://github.com/Andersbakken/rtags][rtags]] server (~rdm~) installed and running. This
should be available through your OS's package manager.

** Project compile settings
By default, a set of default compile settings are defined in
~+cc-default-compiler-options~ for C, C++ and Objective C. Irony, rtags and
flycheck will fall back to these.

To make these tools aware of project specific build settings, you need a JSON
