docs, usage: make it clear that the argument of --quotestr is a regex
...
In the past, the argument could be either a regex or a literal string,
so the wording was kind of vague. But nowadays we can count on having
regex support (through gnulib), so be more precise in the description.

docs: remove mention of the quotestr for when regex support is lacking
...
Since version 2.8.0, nano will use (wnen needed) the regex routines
from gnulib, so mentioning the quotestr for when regex support is
lacking, has been obsolete and pointless for more than a year.
Also, remove some superfluous backslashes, use a non-breaking space
in the texinfo document, and order the regex consistently.
