Copyedits and updates for Emacs manual's first few chapters.
* doc/emacs/basic.texi (Inserting Text): Add xref to Completion. Add ucs-insert example, and document prefix argument. (Moving Point): Fix introduction; C-f/C-b are no longer equivalent to left/right. Tweak left-char and right-char descriptions. M-left and M-right are now bound to left-word/right-word. (Erasing): Document delete-forward-char. * doc/emacs/commands.texi (User Input): Define "input event" more clearly. (Keys): Add xref to Echo Area. (Commands): Clarify relation between commands and functions. * doc/emacs/entering.texi (Entering Emacs): Define "startup screen". Document window-splitting behavior with command-line inputs. (Exiting): Remove obsolete paragraph about shells without suspend functionality. * doc/emacs/frames.texi (Non-Window Terminals): Index just "text-only terminal", which is used throughout the manual now. * doc/emacs/screen.texi (Screen, Menu Bar): Copyedits. (Point): Remove duplicate paragraph on cursors, also in Screen. (Mode Line): Trailing dashes no longer shown on X displays.
