Fix minor glitches from ‘format’ reversion
* doc/lispref/strings.texi (Formatting Strings): After reversion, ‘text-quoting-style’ is documented in ‘Keys in Documentation’, not below. * src/syntax.c (Finternal_describe_syntax_value): Prefer AUTO_STRING to build_string where either will do, as AUTO_STRING is a bit faster.
