Simplify user interface

Hide non-essential user interface elements:

  • the startup message in the echo area
  • the “Emacs Calculator Mode” banner on top of the stack
  • the all-inputs “trail” window.
(with-eval-after-load 'calc
  (setopt calc-inhibit-startup-message t)
  ;; NOTE Not `custom'-settable.
  ;; For many variables, Calc uses `defcalcmodevar' instead of `defcustom'.
  (setq calc-show-banner t
        calc-display-trail t))
