kill window on capture abort

[QiangF]

The window layout should be restored.

Thank you for your contribution! I'm curious why this is needed, though - with 789cb6d, we no longer open the notes in a different window - so theoretically we shouldn't need to kill the window. For example, if the user has two windows, and opens notes in one of them, I think it'd be a mistake to kill that window when quiting out of the notes buffer. What do you think?

I agree that it is a user preference issue. But since the note buffer is temporary, it maybe better to be shown in a popup, not shown in the current window. I use Shackle to manage popup windows, shackle unfortunately can not delete the window after use.

I have my improved shackle here https://github.com/QiangF/shackle

Comment for my last commit:

1. currently the whole note (tag and note abstract) are highlighted with hl-line face, which is quite distracting, highlight the current line using hl-line-mode is enough.
2. when there are too many items in an ekg notes buffer, add more tags to further filter the result is an useful functionality, the tags in effect is removed from the complete read list.

I am not good at git. Please feel free to close or modified the pull request as you see fit.

Quite agree on this. I'd like to disable it by default.

I find I can put window closing in kill-buffer-hook, I have added that support https://github.com/QiangF/shackle

Without hl-line-mode, though, how do you know what the current note is? There needs to be some visual indication.

As far as the behavior of creating windows or not (and then killing them on quitting out), perhaps the behavior can be configured. Let me see if there's some standard practice that I might be missing here.

You are right. I find it is less unpleasing when I limit the amount of the previewed note content in ekg-display-note-template. I think this pull request could be closed now. Just don't forget to make the buffer name more consistent, use "*EKG " instead of "*ekg ".

Thank you for bringing up these points, though - I appreciate the pull request. I'm not sure what the best solution is yet, but I'll continue to think about this.
