[bug#45011] [PATCH] add emacs-project and dependency

[Jonathan]

Hi

The descriptions are the ones found in their project's homepage. I can't think of a better synopsis for Project since it provides several functions to operate on a project directory... Do you have a suggestion?.

Which patch do you want first? emacs-xref is needed for emacs-project. Do you want me to send emacs-xref first?

Best,

Thank you!

Could you write a commit message to introduce your changes? You can look
at those starting with "Add ..." in the code base.

Also, could you split it into two patches, one for each package?

The synopsis could be clarified, so could the description. In
particular, the latter explains what the library is about.

Ditto.

Could you send an updated patch?
