docs: mention some more differences with Pico in the Info document

Mention the ability to use <Tab> in the search history, the ability
to restore the cursor position when reopening a file, the ability to
read output of a command, and the lack of file-managing commands in
the file browser.

build: install the Info and Html manuals even when 'makeinfo' is missing
...
If the system on which nano is configured does not have the 'makeinfo'
program installed, the prebuilt and packaged nano.info and nano.html
should nevertheless be installed.
Also, the TEXINFOS primary has built-in rules for generating HTML files
from the texinfo sources, so an explicit rule is not needed.
This indirectly addresses https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?49969 .

build: move all documentation into a single directory

There are just a handful of source files for the documentation --
it is wasteful and cumbersome to have these in separate directories.
Also: remove the French man pages -- they are too far out of date.
(And anyway, we should acquire a general framework for translating
the documentation.)

(The variable 'pletion_line' is not conditionalized with this option, as
it would become messy. The compiler will probably be able to elide it.)
When using --enable-tiny, it is not possible to use --enable-wordcomp,
because the word completion function uses the undo system.

white-on-black or black-on-white terminals. Change the black in the
autoconf error strings to brightred for that reason.
