* src/global.c (first_sc_for): Move this too to a better place.
* src/prompt.c (do_yesno_prompt): Use the new and more direct
func_from_key() wrapper instead of get_shortcut().
* src/text.c (do_linter): Likewise.
* src/files.c (do_insertfile, do_writeout): Likewise.
* src/files.c (do_insertfile): Adjust some indentation.
* src/prompt.c (do_statusbar_input), src/browser.c (do_browser):
Reorder a few things, and adjust some whitespace.

undo work, colouring nano's interface, and other patches.

for you (gofmt), which is lovely. rcfile option formatter,
function text.c:do_formatter() and some other calls.

handle choosing to not open a file when locked instead of in
open_file().
* src/winio.c (do_credits): Add a general entry for all translators.

to the lock file -- a simple null_at() would not initialize the
buffer.
* src/files.c (do_lockfile): Make sure that 'lockprog' and
'lockuser' are terminated -- strncpy() does not guarantee that
on its own.
* src/files.c (do_lockfile): Avoid printing a wrong PID on the
status bar due to treating serialized PID bytes as signed
integers.
* src/files.c (write_lockfile): Do not trim the nano version
number -- snprintf() counts the trailing zero into the size limit.

when finding a lock file, for when many files are opened at once.

inherent imperfection of using regular expressions for syntax
highlighting.
* doc/man/nanorc.5: Improve the indentation of some lists.
* doc/man/nanorc.5, doc/texinfo/nano.texi: Remove the mistaken
square brackets around the arguments of "header" and "magic" --
those arguments are not optional. Also add "formatter" to the
texinfo document, and slightly improve its punctuation.
* src/proto.h, src/nano.c: Fix compilation with --enable-tiny plus
- -enable-nanorc.
* src/rcfile.c (parse_binding): Fix the rebinding of toggles.
* doc/man/{nano.1,rnano.1,nanorc.5}, doc/texinfo/nano.texi: Update
years and version numbers in the docs in anticipation of a release.
* src/nano.c (version): Drop compile time from version information
to enable a reproducible build.

to prevent do_undo() from falling over trying to renumber emptiness.

* src/search.c: Place some comments better and unwrap some lines.
* src/chars.c (move_mbleft): Start looking for a multibyte char
not at the start of the string, but only as far back as such a
char can possibly be. Change suggested by Mark Majeres.
* src/search.c (findnextstr): Step backward or forward not simply
one byte but one character (possibly multibyte).
* src/winio.c (edit_redraw): Do not center the current line when
smooth scrolling is used.

only ask for one acknowledgment of errors it encounters when parsing nanorc
files, and a new -q (--quiet) flag will silence these messages altogether.
