98b1f8f059 options: stop recognizing and ignoring -b, -e, -f, -j, and -q
This signals our break from trying to be as compatible with Pico as
possible.  We were already incompatible with modern Pico in the -n
and -W options, and in several character-set and color options, so
ignoring those five options brought us very little.

Anyway, soon some of those options will be reused and will have the
effect of making nano look and behave more like Pico.

without getting a conflict, and --rawsequences can be abbreviated
to simply --raw and still make sense.

ae3ec1784d options: add --zap, that makes <Bsp> and <Del> erase a marked region
Using --zap or -Z on the command line, or 'set zap' in a nanorc file,
makes the <Bsp> and <Del> keys erase selected text (a marked region)
as they do in some other editors, and without affecting the cutbuffer.

This fulfills https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?54837.

because these are clearer and not awkward abbreviations.

ddd033adaf docs: remove a no-longer-needed suggestion from the sample nanorc
It would result in having both <Delete> and <Backspace> behaving as
Backspace, which seems senseless -- unless the <Delete> key produces
ASCII DEL and --rebinddelete is needed to make it behave as Delete.
In the latter case it would make more sense if --rebinddelete made
both rebindings: ASCII DEL to Delete and KEY_DC to Backspace, like
it used to be in the distant past, before commit 79a33bb3.

bb4d0d548a new feature: allow lines to be softwrapped at whitespace
Extend get_softwrap_breakpoint() to break softwrapped lines on
whitespace when a flag is set.  This flag is controlled by the new
rcfile option "atblanks".  The '>' characters marking two-column
characters at the edge of the screen are disabled when it's on.

If get_softwrap_breakpoint() can't find whitespace in screen range, it
will break the line on the screen edge.  (In this case, a blank can be
on the last column of the screen, but text can't, so that a blank on the
last column doesn't become invisible and possibly break the display.)

This fulfills https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?49959.

c6dbcf91c3 new feature: functions to jump to previous or following block of text
And hard-bind the keys Ctrl+Up and Ctrl+Down to these functions.

Unlike the paragraph-jumping code, these new functions disregard
any indentation, treating only blank lines as separators.  They
also do an automatic smart home when that option is set.

This fulfills https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?48291.

6f12992cea new feature: add the option --wordchars, to set extra word characters
This allows the user to specify which other characters, besides the
default alphanumeric ones, should be considered as part of a word, so
that word operations like Ctrl+Left and Ctrl+Right will pass them by.

Using this option overrides the option --wordbounds.
