next-matching-history-element default [patch]

[Kevin Ryde]

In next-matching-history-element, pressing Ret to use the default
before any regexp has ever been given produces an unhelpful error
message.  Eg. with -q -no-site-file,

        C-x C-f M-s Ret
        => Wrong type argument: consp, nil

I see previous-matching-history-element recently got that tweaked
(1995-05-26).  Perhaps next should be the same.

        * simple.el (next-matching-history-element): Same `interactive' form
        as previous-matching-history-element, for better error if history is
        empty, and to make default available with M-n.
