emacs-startup-hook is run after the command line arguments are being processed (and not at all if in batch mode). This has several undesired side-effects. If Emacs is started with file arguments, user-config is being run after the respective major mode has been initialized. Thus, variables set and code defined in user-config will not have the desired effect in that particular scenario. Also, in batch mode, user-config will not be evaluated at all which in some cases is not what the user might want and/or expect.
This refactors the handling of user-config to the after-init-hook and introduces another needed setup function for init.el.
