Buffer Menu updated

[Daniel Pfeiffer]

** Buffer Menu updated

*** It now has a header line that stays fixed, like Info.

*** First heading is now C(urrent-buffer/Command) R(ead-only) M(odified)

C was used, but missing.  The other two have been swapped to match mode-line.

*** Columns now retain a fixed size.

Buffer names, which are now bold by default, get truncated with a vertical
ellipsis `:'.  To make use of wider windows, the buffer and mode columns'
width can be customized.

*** Columns can be sorted.

This is currently only possible via `M-x set-variable Buffer-menu-sort-column'
to some number, like 2 for the buffer names or 5 for the files.  Somebody
should find time to do this by clicking on the column headers.
