More accurate documentation of lax whitespace matching
* lisp/isearch.el (isearch-forward-word, isearch-forward-symbol) (word-search-backward, word-search-forward) (word-search-backward-lax, word-search-forward-lax): Mention in doc strings that toggling lax whitespace matching has no effect on these commands. * doc/emacs/search.texi (Word Search, Symbol Search): Clarify that lax whitespace matching has no effect on these commands.
