auto completion offers builtins and file functions for octave (bug #41371) * file-editor-tab.cc (update_lexer): read settings whether builtin and file functions should also be considered in auto completion for octave files; when functions are also displayed, updating of the files with prepared auto completion informations depends on last modification date of package lists; (add_octave_apis): new function for adding strings to the lexer APIs from the internal octave functions * file-editor-tab.h (add_octave_apis): new function * main-window.cc (handle_octave_ready): call function for creating the empty tab in the editor here because all octave functions must be known for creating the auto completion information * settings-dialog.ui: new checkboxes for auto completion of octaves buitlin and file functions * settings-dialog.cc (constructor): read states for new checkboxes from the settings file; (write_changed_settings): write states of new checkboxes into the settings file

Summary of important user-visible changes for version 4.0:
---------------------------------------------------------

 ** For compatibility with Matlab, the "backtrace" warning option is now
    enabled by default.

 ** The preference

      do_braindead_shortcircuit_evaluation

    is now enabled by default.

 ** The preference

      allow_noninteger_range_as_index

    is now enabled by default and the warning ID

      Octave:noninteger-range-as-index

    is now set to "on" by default instead of "error" by default and "on"
    for --traditional.

 ** polyeig now returns a row vector of eigenvalues rather than a matrix
    with the eigenvalues on the diagonal.  This change was made for Matlab
    compatibility.

 ** Other new functions added in 4.0.0:

    validateattributes

 ** Deprecated functions.

    The following functions were deprecated in Octave 3.6 and have been
    removed from Octave 4.0.
                                           
      cut                polyderiv        
      cor                shell_cmd        
      corrcoef           studentize       
      __error_text__     sylvester_matrix 
      error_text         

    The following functions have been deprecated in Octave 4.0 and will
    be removed from Octave 4.4 (or whatever version is the second major
    release after 4.0):

      allow_noninteger_range_as_index
      do_braindead_shortcircuit_evaluation
      
    The internal function atan2 of the sparse matrix class has been deprecated
    in Octave 4.0 and will be removed from Octave 4.4 (or whatever version is
    the second major release after 4.0).  Use the Fatan2 function with sparse
    inputs as a replacement.
