Subject: Make "Compiling" in the mode line a clickable command

* lisp/progmodes/compile.el (compilation-goto-in-progress-buffer):
New command.
(compilation-in-progress): Don't put the in-progress mode-line
marker among the minor modes (because it's not a minor mode), and
add a command that allows you to switch to the in-progress
compilation buffer (bug#27252).
