bug#64433: 30.0.50; Fix and improve setting priority of todo-mode items

[Stephen Berman]

There are several bugs in setting the priority of todo items in
todo-mode:

- On typing `#' you are prompted to enter a priority; for example, in a
  category with 7 items the prompt is this:
    Set item priority (1-7) (default 1):
  If you enter a number outside of this range, there is another prompt:
    Priority must be an integer between 1 and 7.
     (default 1)
  This prompt is infelicitous, occupying two lines and lacking a colon
  to indicate an expected input.

- You can also set the priority by passing a numerical prefix argument,
  e.g. `C-u 7 #' or simply `7 #' sets the priority to 7 directly without
  prompting.  However, here out-of-range prefix arguments are accepted
  and the result is at least in two cases odd: typing `0 #' sets the
  priority in a category with 7 items 1 by default (1 is always the
  highest priority).  And typing `8 #' or e.g. `8761 #' sets the
  priority to 7, which may seem reasonable; however, with a negative
  prefix, e.g. `-3 #', the priority is also set to 7.

- If, in a category with, say, 7 items, with point on the item with
  priority 4, you type `#' and at the prompt enter 4, or if you invoke
  `4 #', then the priority of the item is correctly unchanged, however,
  the buffer is marked as modified.  Since setting the priority to the
  item's current priority is useless, doing so is probably
  unintentional, so it would be better for todo-mode to respond with a
  prompt for a different priority.  (An exception is moving an item to
  another category: it is and should remain possibly to move an item
  from a category in which it has priority 4 to another category and
  there give it priority 4.)

I have a fix for these bugs and will install it on master when I get a
bug number.

In addition, I will install a minor improvement in the usability of
priority setting: making the minibuffer history for priority setting
consist of the range of item numbers (or in the case of adding a new
item, the maximum priority number is one more then the last item
number).  This is useful to quickly invert the default (set by a user
option); e.g., with the default priority 1, in a category with 37 items,
typing `M-p' at the prompt to enter the priority will insert 37 in the
minibuffer (or 38 if a new item is being inserted in the category).
