Benno Schulenberg c3a11fb7ed options: remove '--quiet' and 'set quiet', because they hide problems
If the user uses a single version of nano, they have no need for
--quiet.  If they do sometimes use an older version and don't want
to see the warnings, they can use 2>/dev/null (they could make an
alias for that and put it before the call of nano).

David Lawrence Ramsey 2356693b81 docs: document the more everyday names of three bindable functions
List "browser", "pageup" and "pagedown" in the manuals; the first
because it matches "speller", and the latter two because they are
what these functions are commonly known by.  The names "tofiles",
"prevpage" and "nextpage" are now undocumented, but they are still
recognized by the code, as they match the tags for these functions.

Benno Schulenberg ba65cd48cc bindings: make ^Q and ^S do something useful by default
^S will be the first thing people will try for saving a file,
and ^Q is somewhat mnemonic because it is to the left of ^W:
it searches backward.

Make these keystrokes available also in the tiny version.

Benno Schulenberg 4562401505 bindings: hard-bind Alt+Up and Alt+Down to findprevious and findnext
So that these functions have bindings by default, and easy bindings.
Add them to the help viewer too, so that searching backward becomes
possible there.
