* doc/lispref/errors.texi (Standard Errors): The error symbol
dbus-error is defined even when Emacs is built without D-Bus.
* doc/misc/dbus.texi (Bus Names, Introspection)
(Nodes and Interfaces, Methods and Signal)
(Properties and Annotations, Arguments and Signatures)
(Synchronous Methods, Receiving Method Calls, Signals)
(Alternative Buses, Errors and Events): Clarify wording. Fix
indentation of and simplify examples where possible. Improve
Texinfo markup and cross-referencing where possible.

now that we have bignums.

* doc/lispref/text.texi (Interpolated Strings): Move from here...
* doc/lispref/strings.texi (Custom Format Strings): ...to here,
renaming the node and clarifying the documentation.
(Formatting Strings): End node with sentence referring to the next
one.
* lisp/format-spec.el (format-spec): Clarify docstring.
* doc/lispref/text.texi (Interpolated Strings): Fix typos. Don't
document modifier for default space padding as it's redundant and
inconsistent with the docstring and implementation of format-spec.
* doc/lispref/display.texi (Fontsets): Improve the accuracy of a
cross-reference to "Character Properties".
* doc/emacs/mule.texi (Fontsets, Modifying Fontsets): Improve the
documentation of fontsets and how to modify them.
* doc/lispref/control.texi (Processing of Errors): Improve indexing by
adding the word form "handle" in addition to "handling". With thanks
to Eli Zaretskii.
Inspired by patch proposed by Dmitry Gutov (Bug#40671#393)
and by further comments by him and by Michael Heerdegen
in the same bug report.
* doc/lispintro/emacs-lisp-intro.texi (setcar):
Don’t push mutability here.
* doc/lispref/eval.texi (Self-Evaluating Forms, Quoting)
(Backquote):
* doc/lispref/lists.texi (Modifying Lists):
* doc/lispref/objects.texi (Lisp Data Types, Mutability):
* doc/lispref/sequences.texi (Array Functions, Vectors):
* doc/lispref/strings.texi (String Basics, Modifying Strings):
Don’t use the word “constant” to describe all values that
a program should not change.
* doc/lispref/objects.texi (Mutability):
Rename from “Constants and Mutability”. All uses changed.
In a footnote, contrast the Emacs behavior with that of Common
Lisp, Python, etc. for clarity, and say the goal is to be nicer.
* doc/emacs/building.texi (Lisp Libraries): Describe how to
manually load packages in the init file. Mention the 'site-lisp'
subdirectory of the default 'load-path'.
* doc/emacs/package.texi (Packages): Describe manual installation
of ELisp packages. Suggested by Jean-Christophe Helary
<jean.christophe.helary@traduction-libre.org>.
While there, add a unit test to verify the behavior.
* doc/lispref/os.texi (Command-Line Arguments): Fix documentation: the
option string in 'command-switch-alist' does include leading hyphens.
Also mention that 'command-switch-alist' parsing ignores equals signs
in options.
* test/lisp/startup-tests.el
(startup-tests/command-switch-alist): New unit test.
* doc/emacs/calendar.texi (Holidays): Revert previous change, as
bahai.org spells it “Bahá’í” (with U+2019 RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION
MARK) and that’s good enough for us.
* doc/emacs/calendar.texi (Holidays): Fix usage of non-ASCII
accents.
* doc/emacs/custom.texi (Init Rebinding): Fix a cross-reference.
* doc/emacs/dired.texi (Operating on Files): Make the
cross-reference to "VC Delete/Rename" be to a different manual in

Problem reported by Štěpán Němec in:
https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-devel/2020-05/msg00130.html
* doc/lispref/lists.texi (Sets And Lists, Association Lists):
Revert examples to be more like the way they were, using
self-evaluating expressions. Be more consistent about listing
unspecified results.
* doc/emacs/search.texi (Replacement and Lax Matches): Document
the role of 'search-upper-case' in replacement commands.
(Lax Search): Document the value 'not-yanks' of
'search-upper-case' where the variable itself is documented.
* lisp/replace.el (query-replace-regexp, query-replace): Mention
'search-upper-case' and its effect in doc strings. (Bug#40940)

windmove-display-default-keybindings,
windmove-delete-default-keybindings,
windmove-swap-states-in-direction.
* etc/NEWS: Regroup to move some parts closer to related sections.
See Bug#40693#32.
* doc/lispref/eval.texi (Self-Evaluating Forms, Backquote):
Say that these yield constant conses, vectors and strings,
not constant symbols.
* doc/lispref/objects.texi (Constants and Mutability): Say that an
attempt to modify a constant variable signals an error, instead of
saying that it has undefined behavior.
This change was inspired by comments from Štěpán Němec in:
https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-devel/2020-04/msg01063.html
* doc/lispref/objects.texi (Lisp Data Types): Mention mutability.
