As the help viewer is almost a normal buffer, commands that make sense
-- like searching backwards, and searching the previous occurrence --
should work in the help viewer too.
In addition, show all Search commands prominently in the help lines of
the help viewer, so that users are likely to notice them and will maybe
infer that they work in the editor itself too.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?54368.

Put "Where Was" in its place, to make the symmetry of ^W/M-W/^Q/M-Q
somewhat clearer. Also, conditionally reshuffle "Save File", to try
and keep menu items nicely paired.
Bind the until-now unbound function 'cutwordright' to <Ctrl+Delete>.
The complementary function, 'cutwordleft', is not bound by default
because on many terminals the keystroke <Ctrl+Backspace> generates
^H -- the canonical ASCII backspace character. We cannot change the
existing action of ^H without upsetting some users.

To match the documentation and to match what the nanorc.nanorc
colors as valid.
In theory it would be possible to allow rebinding also F17...F63,
but nano does not recognize escape sequences for these high-order
function keys. As no one ever complained about unknown sequences
when pressing function keys, I am guessing that no one has these
high-order keys, or at least that no one uses them.
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?54332.
This makes things symmetrical: ^W starts a forward search, ^Q starts
a backward search, M-W searches the next occurrence forward, and M-Q
searches the next occurrence backward.
The Tabs-To-Spaces toggle is moved to M-O, and thus the More-Space
toggle is no longer bound by default.
When executing a command, it is now possible to pipe the entire buffer
(or the marked region, if anything is marked) to the external command.
The output from the command replaces the buffer (or the marked region),
or goes to a new buffer.
This fulfills https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?28993,
and fulfills https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?53041.

This makes the names of these bindable functions equal to the names of
their corresponding options -- like for all the other toggles that have
a corresponding option.
When just scrolling and the cursor does not need to change position
(that is: it is not on the first or last row of the edit window),
then edit_scroll() has handled everything and there is no need to
additionally redraw anything or update 'placewewant'.
The slash is easier to read than the underscore (which almost
disappears at the bottom of the screen), and easier to type
(no Shift needed on a US keyboard), and it kind of harmonizes
with the ^\ for Replace and the M-/ for End-of-buffer.
In this way a single keystroke can produce a fragment of text or a
series of commands, or a mix of the two. It is like a prerecorded
macro.
This fulfills https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?52931.
When the palette is getting initialized, it is too late to send any
error messages about the rcfile options to standard error.

Each leading tab is converted to two tabs, and any leading four spaces
is converted to one tab. The intended tab size (for keeping most lines
within 80 columns) is now four.
When unindenting/uncommenting affected the bottom line of the marked
region, keep affecting this line also during subsequent consecutive
indenting/commenting.
