Update keymap documentation in the book (#1745)

Browse Source 
* Add missing key bindings to keymap docs

* Add a note about readline bindings in insert mode

* Rewrite section on selection extend mode

We seem to have settled on this model, so no reason to say in the
docs that this is experimental. I also don't think we have any
movements that don't obey extend mode left.

* Fix table formatting

* Fix missing command for command palette binding

* Fix missed capitalization of descriptions in keymap docs

* Be consistent with multiple bindings in keymap docs

* Fix differently marked up commands in keymap docs

* Make special key capitalization consistent

Co-authored-by: Michael Davis <michael.davis@nfiindustries.com>

* Fix extra space in docs

Co-authored-by: Michael Davis <michael.davis@nfiindustries.com>

* A few more capitalizations of special keys in keymap docs

* Move a selection manipulation key map to the appropriate section in docs

* Move minor mode entry bindings to the minor modes section of keymap docs

* Add note about default register used in search commands in keymap docs

* Fix formatting of rebased addition

* Remove note about potential removal of select mode

It's been decided since to keep it
