75b312ded1 revert the previous commit -- forget about -? as a synonym for --help 
An ambiguous option like --back or --word would cause nano to spew
the entire help text.  It should do the latter only when the user
explicitly requests it.

e65b0ba654 options: add -? as a synonym of -h (--help) 
The short option '-?' was removed nine years ago in commit 43019189,
then restored six years later in 5bd92d4c, and then removed again two
months later in 743100fe due to getopt() returning '?' for options
that aren't recognized, preventing the use of '-?' as a valid option.

However, getopt() provides a way to check for unrecognized options
via the 'optopt' variable, which gets set only for invalid options.

7f17777a4b docs: mention that a restricted nano does not access the history files 
With some imagination, the lack of access could be inferred from the
other descriptions, but it's much better to be clear and explicit.

Also, separate two items that are unrelated and reshuffle them into
a neater order.

bcdb27416c docs: describe nano more specifically as a text editor

e7491920fd docs: explain how to include a double quote plus space in a nanorc regex 
As double-quote-plus-space indicates the end of a regular expression
in a nanorc file, the inclusion of this combination *in* a regular
expression requires breaking the juxtaposition of the two, which
can be achieved by putting either of them between square brackets.

(It can also be achieved by preceding the space with a backslash,
which is shorter, but... the above method is more symmetrical.)

f4a2e7efe2 tweaks: move the --magic option up, so that --zero comes last 
This makes that the three options that change the default layout
of the interface (--stateflags, --minibar, --zero) come last.

Also, sort the option letters into a consistent order in the code.

18a40caa48 docs: remove the two notices about the changed defaults 
It has been more than three years since version 4.0 was released,
the moment that the defaults for line wrapping, smooth scrolling,
and the size of the editing window were changed.

Keep the note in the texi manual, though, as it is less in the way,
and the manual generally contains more info than the man pages.
