Make \relative { ... } interpret the first pitch as an absolute one

The previous default of \relative { ... } being \relative c' { ... }
made c' more special than warranted.  Having to write
\relative f { ... } for this functionality seems awkward since f
serves no musical function but just happens to be the middle of the
scale.  Iff the scale is the standard scale.  The new definition of
\relative takes care to determine the "middle of the scale"  
reference
point properly even in the case of non-standard scales.

Also contains

Document \relative { ... } behavior


And it is currently rebased on the code for issue 3231 to make it
testable.  Once issue 3231 passes into master, this patch will get
reduced in size.
