bug#66282: 26.3; Doc string of `overlay-arrow-string'

Thanks.

I'm guessing (could be wrong) that "no-window"
and maybe "non-window" here is a legacy from
when X Window was first supported.

In that context the "window" referred to an
X-Window graphic displa, IOW, akin to a
window-manager window, as opposed to referring
to an Emacs window.

And maybe even the command-line option `-nw'
follows this.  (emacs) Non-Window Terminals.

Just guessing.
