[Nano-devel] updates

[David L. Ramsey]

Sorry it's taken so long to get this worked out; the search code changes
took longer than I thought to reconcile with the other changes from
before, and I'm still rather busy.  At least everything I said I'd get
done before is now done.

Changes:

* ported over DB's search code, plus a few additional fixes of mine;
searching should now always start on the character after (or before, if
it's a backwards search) the current one, as opposed to the old code
which wouldn't do that if e.g. we were doing a forward regex search for
"^"; the search code misbehavior has apparently been fixed too e.g.
doing a forward regex search for "^" now properly wraps around at the
magicline

The committed patch is here:

* split up the code to search through paragraphs and the code to justify
paragraphs

* added some miscellaneous cleanups

* added the second version of Martin Ehmsen's backup directory patch,
with a few minor changes of mine; the only change from the first version
of the patch, which was sent to the list, is that the pathnames of the
backed-up files are now encoded into the filenames (all '/'s in the
pathnames are replaced with '!'s); of course, there may be problems if
you're backing up a file with literal '!'s in its name, but after much
thinking about it, I've concluded that since there are similar problems
with the original backup mode and non-backup files with trailing '~'s
and no one's complained, it's apparently not much of a problem

The only remaining item is Tom Bates' nsr-tandem-nsk port, and the only
reason I'm doing it now is because it's very simple.  After that, we can
finally go to the 1.3.2 stability testing.
