bug#48603: 27.2; [PATCH] Quit minibuffers without aborting kmacros

[miha]

Rationale: a user wants to copy a command from command history without
executing it. Or user wants to complete a file name in C-x C-f and copy
it without finding the file. I believe this should be possible in
keyboard macros.

Subject: [PATCH] Quit minibuffers without aborting kmacros

* src/data.c (syms_of_data): New error symbol `lite-quit'

* src/keyboard.c (recursive_edit_1): Implement throwing of function
values to `exit`.  In that case, the function will be called without
arguments before returning from the command loop.
(cmd_error):
(Fcommand_error_default_function): Do not abort keyboard macro
execution if lite-quit is signaled.
(command_loop_2): New argument HANDLERS.

* src/macros.c (Fexecute_kbd_macro): Use command_loop_2 instead of
command_loop_1.

* doc/lispref/commands.texi (Quitting): Document `lite-quit'
(Recursive Editing): Document throwing of function values to `exit'.

* doc/lispref/errors.texi (Standard Errors): Document `lite-quit'

* lisp/minibuffer.el (lite-quit-recursive-edit): New function.

* src/minibuf.c (Fabort_minibuffers): Use it.

* lisp/simple.el (minibuffer-error-function): Do not abort keyboard
macro execution if is lite-quit is signaled.

+  To quit without aborting keyboard macro definition or execution, you
