Done with documentation updates in the manual. Also I noticed that the
value nil of search-exit-option is quite broken: it doesn't do anything
useful. The manual says:
"However, if you customize the variable ‘search-exit-option’ to ‘nil’,
the characters which you type that are not interpreted by the
incremental search are simply appended to the search string. This is
so you could include in the search string control characters, such as
‘C-a’, that would normally exit the search and invoke the command
bound to them on the buffer."
But the comment in isearch-pre-command-hook says:
;; If search-exit-option is nil, run the command without exiting Isearch.
So it's not clear what it should do for e.g. motion commands:
just move point without exiting Isearch or append control characters
of motion keys to the search string?
