#' Add footnote (new)
#'
#' @description `footnote` provides a more flexible way to add footnote. You
#' can add mutiple sets of footnote using differeny notation system. It is
#' also possible to specify footnote section header one by one and print
#' footnotes as a chunk of texts.
#'
#' @param kable_input HTML or LaTeX table generated by `knitr::kable`
#' @param general Text for general footnote comments. Footnotes in this section
#' won't be labeled with any notations
#' @param number A vector of footnote texts. Footnotes here will be numbered.
#' There is no upper cap for the number of footnotes here
#' @param alphabet A vector of footnote texts, Footnotes here will be labeled
#' with abc. The vector here should not have more than 26 elements.
#' @param symbol A vector of footnote texts, Footnotes here will be labeled
#' with special symbols. The vector here should not have more than 20 elements.
#' @param footnote_order The order of how to arrange `general`, `number`,
#' `alphabet` and `symbol`.
#' @param footnote_as_chunk T/F value. Default is FALSE. It controls whether
#' the footnotes should be printed in a chunk (without line break).
#' @param escape T/F value. It controls whether the contents and titles should
#' be escaped against HTML or LaTeX. Default is TRUE.
#' @param general_title Section header for general footnotes. Default is
#' "Note: ".
#' @param number_title Section header for number footnotes. Default is "".
#' @param alphabet_title Section header for alphabet footnotes. Default is "".
#' @param symbol_title Section header for symbol footnotes. Default is "".
#'
#' @examples dt <- mtcars[1:5, 1:5]
#' footnote(knitr::kable(dt, "html"), alphabet = c("Note a", "Note b"))
