Subject: [PATCH] Make TAGS files more portable to MS-Windows

* etc/NEWS: Document this.
* lib-src/etags.c (readline_internal) [DOS_NT]:
Don't treat CRs differently from GNUish hosts.
* lisp/progmodes/etags.el (etags-goto-tag-location):
Adjust STARTPOS to account for the skipped CRs in dos-style files.
