menus: put the ^T toggle in Search in the same position as in Goto-Line

So that when toggling it, the ^T in the help lines stays roughly in the
same place.

menus: move the paragraph-jumping functions from Search to Goto-Line

The start-of-paragraph and end-of-paragraph seeking functions are only
vaguely related to searching, and have nothing to do with replacing --
the functions make more sense in the Goto-Line menu.

Also, the Goto-Line menu is much less crowded, so the functions are
more likely to be noticed there. Furthermore, this makes harmless a
typo that I sometimes make: typing ^W again when I've already done so.

menus: remove the ^Y and ^V shortcuts from the Search menus

Jumping to the first or last line of the buffer doesn't have anything
to do with searching, so these functions shouldn't be present in the
search menus. They make perfect sense in the Goto-Line menu, though.

display: highlight the ">"/"<" continuation characters in reverse video

To make it obvious that they are not actual characters in the file.

The default highlighting is in reverse video, but this can be changed
to bold by using --bold or 'set boldtext'.

This fulfills https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?55571.

display: change the "$" continuation character to ">" and "<"

The angular brackets look a bit like arrows and thus hint much more
at the idea of continuation than a dollar sign.

display: represent half of a double-width character with "[" and "]"

When the screen's edge leaves just one column for a two-column
character, then show its left half as "[" and its right half as "]".

(They used to be shown as ">" and "<", but these characters will be
repurposed in the next commit.)

This addresses https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?55657.

tweaks: don't bother executing two functions that are empty

The get_history_older_void() and get_history_newer_void() functions
are mere names, they don't actually do anything. So... don't bother
to execute them, so the 'finished' variable doesn't have to be reset
after calling them.

Also, normalize the order of those two empty functions.
