Document more display actions in `display-buffer' (bug#80092)
* lisp/window.el (display-buffer): Add docs for several missing actions: - display-buffer-in-atom-window - display-buffer-in-direction - display-buffer-in-side-window - display-buffer-reuse-mode-window - display-buffer-use-some-frame Re-arrange the actions into a less-arbitrary sequence. Re-word some descriptions to use a more consistent phrasing. Re-wrap some lines (based on the longest pre-existing line), to reduce the line count. Un-link the `pop-up-frames' symbol in the alist entry listing. (display-buffer--action-function-custom-type): Add missing actions, and re-order as above. (display-buffer-reuse-mode-window): Tweak the docstring for better consistency with other display actions.
