Re: a property "definition-type" would help find macro-defined tests

In the two weeks since posting the proposal for a new property
"definition-type" (find-function-search-for-symbol would use
it instead of the passed-in type to find a definition), I have
received only one response, an enthusiastic "yes, please!"

So unless I hear any objections now, I will go ahead and add this feature.

In addition to the small code and doc-string changes to
find-function-search-for-symbol, I will expand the Emacs Lisp
manual's documentation of definition-name in node "Standard
Properties" to include definition-type.  I will also mention
definition-type, with cross reference, in "defining functions
dynamically" and, in the ERT manual, in "How to Write Tests".
