bug#29399: 26.0.90; `edit-kbd-macro' has bad prompt


From: Drew Adams

emacs -Q

C-x ( C-f C-f C-f C-x )

M-: (global-set-key (kbd "C-o") 'execute-extended-command)
M-: (global-set-key (kbd "M-x") 'forward-char)

C-o edit-kbd-macro RET

The prompt says:

"Keyboard macro to edit (C-x e, M-x, C-h l, or keys):"

It should use \\[execute-extended-command] and thus say:

"Keyboard macro to edit (C-x e, C-o, C-h l, or keys):"

This prompt is anyway not clear.  The command should instead accept
a key sequence that shows more complete info/help, and the prompt should
just mention that key sequence.
