* Add introductory text to the tables

And mention characters that don't have escapes

* Turn tables around

Tables should be structured by what the user wants, not by what the code does.

* Address Julow review #1

- Merge tables, no matter which rule requires escaping; "in the usual way for XML" applies to both
- 3 escapes not mandatory removed from table to new ¶ below
- Found one more symbol → legend

* doc: Clarify escaping of comma and colon per #915

* Massage Intro

Start with definition, then use cases, then valid syntax.

Use "legend" rather than "symbol" for the visible legend on the keyboard

Rephrase to avoid "exhaustive". Other simplifications.

* Edit section "Modifiers"

Separate into two tables, each preceded by relevant introduction

* Shuffle sections

Retitle "Special keys"; as used in the Intro, this term refers to all the keywords in this file.

Put two contrasting sections together, add "In contrast," and reword.

Add "macro" keys that behave as if a sequence of keys is typed.

Macro can be added to custom layouts or through the "Add keys to the
keyboard option". The syntax is:

    symbol:key1,key2,..

The symbol cannot contain a : character. 'key1', 'key2', etc.. are:

  - 'String with \' escaping'
    The key will generate the specified string.
  - keyevent:123
    The key will send a keyevent.
  - The name of any special key

Implement up and down cursor movement slider. This is not added to any
layout yet due to the undesirable behavior when moving the focus out of
the text box being edited.

Whether a key behaves as a slider is now purely defined by the key
values present on it.
