Paul Eggert f1ba92448d Document encode-time caveats
* doc/lispref/os.texi (Time of Day, Time Conversion):
Move the warnings about DST being -1 to closer to where DST is
discussed, and reword and improve the discussions and warnings.
Be more precise about years before 1969 (possible west of UTC) vs the
Epoch.  Mention some problems due to leap seconds, leap years,
daylight saving transitions, and time zone changes.  Modernize
discussion of OS timestamp range.  Prefer secular ‘BCE’ to religious
‘BC’.  Omit discussion of decoded-time-add and make-decoded-time, as
they are in a library and are not always available; instead, mention
the library.  Warn about common mistakes when doing simple date
arithmetic.
* src/timefns.c (Fencode_time): In doc string, mention date
arithmetic and tighten up the wording a bit.

README for the Emacs Lisp Reference Manual.

* This directory contains the texinfo source files for the Emacs Lisp
Reference Manual.

* Report bugs in the Lisp Manual (or in Emacs) using M-x report-emacs-bug.
To ask questions, use the help-gnu-emacs mailing list.

* The Emacs Lisp Reference Manual is quite large.  It totals around
1100 pages in smallbook format; the info files total around 3.0 megabytes.

* You can format this manual for Info, for printing hardcopy using TeX,
or for HTML.

* You can buy nicely printed copies from the Free Software Foundation.
Buying a manual from the Free Software Foundation helps support our GNU
development work.  See <https://shop.fsf.org/>.
(At time of writing, this manual is out of print.)

* The master file for formatting this manual for Tex is called 'elisp.texi'.
It contains @include commands to include all the chapters that make up
the manual.

* This distribution contains a Makefile that you can use with GNU Make.

** To make an Info file, you need to install Texinfo, then run 'make info'.

** Use 'make elisp.pdf' or 'make elisp.html' to create PDF or HTML versions.
