bc7e7d847e docs: list the default color combo for 'spotlightcolor' in sample nanorc 
The comment says that only 'errorcolor' and 'spotlightcolor' have
a default value.  Better list the default value for both of them.

7d6ffd9e78 docs: don't use "light" after "bold", as the latter often implies "light" 
On most terminals "bold" also makes the relevant text lighter (or just
makes it lighter, like on a Linux console).  Only some terminals allow
the user to switch this coupling of bold to light off.

b8daf1fb0b docs: correct the default value of the errorcolor option 
It should be "bold,white,red" instead of "brightwhite,red"
because "bright" is deprecated and not documented.

296c5a32c7 docs: replace a non-problem in the FAQ with something possibly useful 
Opening a file whose name starts with a plus is not a problem at all.
Instead describe how to get the Alt+Up keystroke to scroll on a Linux
console (on Debian and friends).

This addresses https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?57294.

101dc4e805 docs: make ^E access the Execute menu in the example CUA bindings 
Also, add the normal CUA bindings for Undo (^Z) and Redo (^Y),
and drop the M-X thinko.

With these more "usual" alternative bindings, ^X will now do a Cut
(putting the cut text into the cutbuffer) only when in the main menu
-- in the other places it did not put anything into the cutbuffer,
so it's better to have only the default ^K ("kill") for that.

Suspension is now accessible with ^E^Z, and the Speller with ^E^S.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?60766.

Bug existed since version 3.2, commit 33d67d5c,
since the more usual example bindings were introduced.

072c8aa39b options: move --stateflags (-%) and --magic (-!) to the end of the list 
It's nicer to start the list with -A, -B, -C.  And, when the user
does 'nano --help', these new flags are more likely to be noticed.
