Cross-reference the "completers" option, and explain how filtering works.

For the "completions" option type, the documentation states that |
and \ need to be escaped as \| and \\.
The same parser is for other option types that are lists-of-tuples:
range-specs and line-specs, so they need escaping too. Document that.
Only their last element can contain arbitrary data, so range-specs
and line-specs could work without escaping if we tweaked the parser.
Synchronized output does not work well with various terminals
(including the linux console). It should also be unnecessary when
not going through a slow link.
This will eventually be removed if it is not proven to be useful
to some users.
In some cases, it may be difficult to easily spot the area out of the buffer
(bad color scheme, small font, superimposed windows).
This patch adds two ncurses ui_options to bypass this problem:
- `ncurses_padding_char`, to configure the padding character,
- `ncurses_padding_fill`, to indicate whether to fill the padding line
(or to display a single character).
The default config is the legacy one (a single "~").
For clojure.kak and haskell.kak, set extra_word_chars on the buffer
and not the window, so that the buffer's word db is updated correctly
for word completion.
Document this.
Also, minor refactor of clojure.kak.
Closes#3108
This permit to choose if files should be written by overwriting their
content (the default), or by writing to a separate temporary file
and rename it to the current file.
As discussed in #2036
By setting the ncurses_builtin_key_parser ui_option to true, we
can disable ncurses parsing of key strokes to get less portable
parsing but support for more complex modifiers.
Also, moved the "Markup strings" section to faces.asciidoc, since it wasn't
anything to do with expansions, and updated various hyperlinks to point at the
new location.
Shifted function keys are not well standardized around terminals,
Shift F(N) usually returns F(X) + N, with X=12 on xterm, X=10 on
rxvt-unicode... Default to X=12 and make it configuable through
the ncurses_shift_function_key ui_option.
This fixes what #1898 tried to.
