I added a link in the doc string of delete-selection-mode to
delete-selection-helper and delete-selection-pre-hook.

I added that.

I added to the ELisp manual text that briefly mentions how Delete
Selection mode affects commands, and refers to the doc strings of
delete-selection-pre-hook and delete-selection-helper.

I think this makes the documentation of this quite adequate, so I'm
marking this bug done.
