5e7a3c2e7e files: run chmod and chown on the descriptor, not on the filename
This closes a window of opportunity where the emergency file could be
replaced by a malicious symlink.

The issue was reported by `MartinJM` and `InvisibleMeerkat`.

Problem existed since version 2.2.0, commit 123110c5, when chmodding
and chowning of the emergency .save file was added.

c020d53e23 input: snip the recordmacro and runmacro keystrokes in a better way
When recording a macro over a laggy connection or on a slow, overloaded
computer, several keystrokes could be recorded in one burst, and if any
but the last of those keystrokes was the shortcut for `runmacro`, then
running the macro would lead to an infinite loop and nano would hang.

This new implementation of snipping the "last keystroke" will, however,
snip *too many* keystrokes when several of them were recorded at once
and `runmacro` or `recordmacro` was among them, resulting in a cropped
and thus misrecorded macro.  But... that's better than hanging.

In general, though, the user should be slow and deliberate when
recording a macro: waiting for nano to have processed the last
keystroke before typing the next.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?65649.
The issue was reported by `correctmost`.

Problem existed since version 2.9.0, since macros were introduced.

cb02937714 wrapping: delete only single characters, not a possibly marked region
These calls of do_delete() were meant to delete just one character,
but over time do_delete() morphed into doing also other things...
Change the calls to invoke the correct function instead.

(This also avoids snipping any zero-width characters that come after
a snipped space, as that is probably not what the user wants.)

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?65636.

Bug existed since version 3.2, commit ae3ec178,

5beb14cffe softwrap: realign start-of-screen when redoing an automatic hard-wrap
Redoing an automatic hard-wrap while one or more chunks of the affected
line are offscreen, can leave 'firstcolumn' with a value that doesn't
fit the situation.  So, make sure that it has a valid value.

This complements the previous commit.

7b07e1ee5c softwrap: adjust start-of-screen when the 'edittop' line is hard-wrapped
When one or more chunks of the current line are above the viewport,
and this line gets hard-wrapped, then 'edittop' needs to be advanced,
otherwise the first row could be blank -- representing a chunk that
doesn't exist any more.

c02aec557c syntax: makefile, sh: recognize also a fresh Makefile and fresh .profile
When opening a nonexistent file with nano, it likely consists of only a
name without any path component, and thus without any slash.  So when a
file regex checks for a slash, it should check also for start-of-string.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?65591.

Problem existed for the Makefile since version 2.9.8, commit 22663f8a,
and for .profile since version 3.0, commit 4a268678 (but earlier, nano
did not recognize .profile files at all).

c695d49a86 editing: adjust the mark before trimming redundant blanks
When an entirely blank line is trimmed (when --autoindent is active and
Enter is pressed while the cursor is at the end of the current indent),
the mark needs be adjusted *before* 'current_x' is zeroed, otherwise the
mark gets moved too much to the right, which causes the region to become
bigger than what the user intended, or leads to accessing unallocated
memory.

2b335060b0 feedback: suppress format-conversion messages for --zero and --mini
A "Read xx lines (converted from...)" message should be suppressed when
--zero or --minibar are active (just like the normal "Read xx lines"),

are opened at the same time.  The message should get shown, however,
when inserting a file into the current buffer.

8610857015 feedback: drop an unnecessary warning, to not bother the user
The idea of the warning was that `row < 0 || row >= editwinrows` would
never be true: that the check was redundant and could be removed.

As it appears to be too hard to make sure in advance that a chunk will
not fall outside the viewport, just drop the warning and leave the check
in place.

c2322f8563 display: draw a new magic line rightaway when there are multiline regexes
Drawing a line will allocate multidata for it (even when the line is
actually empty), so that this multidata will not be missing later on
when the next line gets drawn in the same burst of keystrokes.

(This also removes the triggering of a full refresh when line numbers
are active: only the new magic line needs to be additionally drawn, in
order to get the line number printed.)

6351dab3e6 bindings: let M-" place/remove an anchor, and let M-' jump to one
On my current laptop, typing <Alt+Insert> is awkward because it requires
holding down <Fn> too.  Also, M-" and M-' are in the normal symbols area
of the keyboard, which makes them easier to type and more discoverable.
Furthermore, being next to M-: and M-; (on a US keyboard) reinforces the
meanings: start/place, stop/remove, run/goto.

3fb8efc8f2 input: prevent 'macro_length' from underflowing when hammering M-:
Normally, when recording a macro, users will make their keystrokes
slowly and carefully, and will most likely wait to see the effect
of the previous keystroke before making the next.  So, the chances
of two `recordmacro` keystrokes coming in in quick succession is
normally nil.  The 'macro_length' variable just needs a guard to
prevent it from underflowing when someone is hammering the keys.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?65394 in a better way.

9f1431be17 justify: keep as much of the marked region onscreen as possible
When the justified region fits in its entirety onscreen, then it should
be shown in its entirety, because the user is probably curious what the
region looks like after justification.  This behavior will mean that
the line above the topline of the screen will still have multidata
(when the syntax has multiline regexes).  When the justified region
does not fit onscreen, then as much as possible should be shown --
meaning that the cursor should be either at the top or the bottom
of the viewport, meaning that it should not be centered.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?65482.

e1c6ae7cf3 justify: keep the cursor at the original end of a marked region
When justifying a region that was marked backwards, the cursor
should stay at the beginning of this region.  The old logic was
faulty because mark_is_before_cursor() does not give the correct
result *after* the justification has been done: for some reason
the mark ends up always before the cursor.
