Merge goto-word with goto-subword

[bbatsov]

I think it'd be beneficial if there were 2 commands less to remember and the goto-word commands were simply subword-mode aware - they'd respect subwords if subword-mode is enabled. Alternatively there could be some defcustom with values like - "word-start", "subword-start", "subword-start-when-subword-mode-enabled".

We might need to fix that goto-subword-1 cannot jump to punctuation while goto-word-1 can before merging them.

Actually, it seems to me that another command would need to be introduced for this for a total of 3:

• word
• subword
• word-or-subword

Since there are bound to be users that would want to call word when subword-mode is on, and vice versa.

We don't have such a distinction for words separated by - and _, so this seems a bit superficial to me. I think all composite words should be treated the same way.

What would the word-or-subword command to do? Act on subwords only when subword-mode is enabled?

Exactly. It's a very simple command.

This is mode-specific. We rely on \\b to tell us the word boundaries.

Fair enough.

I understand why this is behaving like it is. I'm just saying it's not a very intuitive behaviour. At any rate - I'm fine with using a word-or-subword command.
