Description

XFCE seems to be to most natural desktop for void. One can install void with XFCE. If someone installs just plain void with no desktop and then wants to add XFCE there is NO documentation for it. Just the names for the meta-packages, some notes on dbus etc. A little work worth done I think...
Thanks in advance!

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing chapter 3.6 and its desktop-related sections in the Void Docs source. Document installing and configuring XFCE on a plain Void installation, including the relevant meta-packages and dbus notes mentioned in the issue. Done means a new subchapter covers the complete setup path.
