find-function-search-for-symbol will reuse the existing buffer if
we've already opened the file that contains this symbol. However, if
the user has narrowed that buffer, we can't find definitions outside
the narrowed area.
Instead, search the whole file to find definitions, and teach the help
buttons to widen if necessary.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/find-func.el (find-function-search-for-symbol):
Search the whole buffer for the target symbol.
* lisp/help-mode.el: Help buttons now widen the target buffer, if
narrowing is in effect and the target position is not in that range.
Most of this change is to boilerplate commentary such as license URLs.
This change was prompted by ftp://ftp.gnu.org's going-away party,
planned for November. Change these FTP URLs to https://ftp.gnu.org
instead. Make similar changes for URLs to other organizations moving
away from FTP. Also, change HTTP to HTTPS for URLs to gnu.org and
fsf.org when this works, as this will further help defend against
man-in-the-middle attacks (for this part I omitted the MS-DOS and
MS-Windows sources and the test tarballs to keep the workload down).
HTTPS is not fully working to lists.gnu.org so I left those URLs alone
for now.
* lisp/faces.el (describe-face): Return (buffer-string). Reorder
the placement of variables/faces in describe-symbol, to put more
emphasis on the variable entry rather than the face. (Bug#24543)
Also make *Help* links to ``' possible. Also make usable as such doc strings
on the function-documentation property of a symbol.

function-documentation property. Also give these symbols a reader-construct
property.

property to work. Use princ rather than prin1 to print the function's name
when it has a reader-construct property.
(help-fns-signature): Don't insert `high-usage' for a reader-construct.
(describe-function-1): Adapt to process documentation on the
function-documentation property. Print "a reader construct" when appropriate.
* lisp/help-mode.el (help-xref-symbol-regexp): Amend this regexp also to match
``'.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/find-func.el (find-library):
* lisp/help-mode.el (help-function-def, help-variable-def):
Run `find-function-after-hook' inside the help-function of the
buttons (bug#22583).

Fix several problems with the recently-added custom variable
help-quote-translation where the code would quote inconsistently
in help buffers. Add support for quoting 'like this', which
is common in other GNU programs in ASCII environments. Change
help-quote-translation to use more mnemonic values: values are now the
initial quoting char, e.g., (setq help-quote-translation ?`) gets the
traditional Emacs help-buffer quoting style `like this'. Change the
default behavior of substitute-command-keys to match what's done in
set-locale-environment, i.e., quote ‘like this’ if displayable,
'like this' otherwise.
