Stop supporting themes that require prompinit
Only 5% (18/342) of the themes listed under [unixorn/awesome-zsh-plugins]
are actually compatible with prompinit. Of these, [clean] also allows
being sourced directly. On the other hand, 3 others are prezto themes.

promptinit would be useful for who wants to try many themes without the
need to restart their shell session. And must be many many, so
"brute-force" starting a new shell to experiment each new theme would be
a burden! Even the cleanup feature of promptinit is still incomplete, so
you eventually get a messy prompt after trying many with it. And that's
not even a everyday use case of the average Zsh user.

So prompinit it not widely supported out there, and also not very useful
for the everyday let-me-use-my-beloved-and-carefully-customized-prompt-during-the-whole-shell-session-pleasee
scenario. It's also faster and simpler to directly just source the prompt
theme to be used, not even having to autoload promptinit and let it scan
all the others themes in fpath that won't be used.
And the Zim "philosophy" is to use fast and simple solutions.
So here we go.

Fixes #325
