Using rot13-region in format-alist |

I have the following patch to make format-alist use rot13-region (from
lisp/rot13.el) instead of the external command "tr" for the ROT13
format. The main reason is that "tr" is not available on Windows
unless the user has installed it from one of the available
Unix-compatibility toolsets.
The only trouble is that rot13-region converts also uppercase letters
(which is IMHO a more common interpretation of how ROT13 works), while
the tr commands used in format-alist do not. That breaks compatibility
with files encoded with the current implementation. OTOH, as case is
preserved, any possible trouble is easily fixed; and it's hard to
imagine anyone using ROT13 to store valuable data anyhow.
So I'd like to go on with the commit.
Comments?

* format.el (format-alist): Use `rot13-region' for ROT13 format
instead of external command "tr".
* rot13.el (rot13-region): Add dummy arg BUFFER for compatibility
with `format-alist'.
