the <Xq> command now supports the @ modifier for cutting into the register

* Can be freely combined with the colon-modifier as well.
  :@Xq cut-appends to register q.
* This simply deletes the given buffer range after the copy or append operation
  as if followed by another <K> command.
* This has indeed been a very annoying missing feature, as you often have to retype the
  range for a K or D command.
  At the same time, this cannot be reasonably solved with a macro since macros
  do not accept Q-Register arguments -- so we would have to restrict ourselves to one or a few
  selected registers.
  I was also considering to solve this with a special stack operation that duplicates the
  top values, so that Xq leaves arguments for K, but this couldn't work for cutting lines
  and would also be longer to type.
* It's the first non-string command that accepts @.
  Others may follow in the future.
  We're approaching ITS TECO madness levels.
