 Convert IDLE's built-in 'extensions' to regular features.

 About 10 IDLE features were implemented as supposedly optional extensions.
 Their different behavior could be confusing or worse for users and not good
 for maintenance.  Hence the conversion.

 The main difference for users is that user configurable key bindings for

 keyset only affects its value in the keyset.  All bindings are defined

 All custom keysets are saved as a whole in config-extension.cfg.  All take
 effect as soon as one clicks Apply or Ok.
