Improve internal consistency

- use checked/unchecked/disabled as the state of checkmarks
- use "color" except when directly quoting Notepad++ UI
    (Notepad++ itself is inconsistent with its usage: Style Configurator has examples of both spellings.
    So this seemed the a reasonable compromise.)

-With auto-completion enabled, after typing a prefix of at least the minimum length, a list is presented with all the available words from the selected list(s) that match what's been typed. (If none match, no list is shown.) The list may be a single entry long, or it may contain multiple items which require navigation, but either way you can select the match and, it is hoped, save yourself some typing.  You can use arrow keys (or the mouse) to navigate through the entries in the popup; hitting the completion key or double-clicking on the choice will select that choice and enter it as if you had just typed the whole word; hitting the `Esc` key will exit the auto-completion popup _without_ choosing one of the suggestions.

 If instead of selecting, you keep typing, items that no longer match will be removed from the list, and it will disappear entirely once you've typed a string that matches none of the selections. (Note that if you dismiss the list with Esc, and then keep typing, and what you type continues to match wordlist entries, then the list will reappear.)

With this enabled, when editing HTML or XML files, after you type an opening tag, such as `<div>`, the program will automatically match it with the closing `</div>`, with the caret placed between the two tags so that content can be added. Matching will work even if attributes are entered while typing the opening tag. And if the opening tag is terminated with a slash (`/`) —such as `<hr/>` —then no matching tag is inserted. (In the case of `<hr>` entered without a slash, a matching close tag will still be inserted, even if unnecessary, for both HTML and XML editing.

 Notepad++ uses XML configuration files to define the per-language function and parameter auto-completion.  Those AutoComplete files are located in the `autoCompletion` subdirectory of the Notepad++ install folder.  (In older versions, Notepad++ v7.6.1 and earlier, they were found in the `plugins\APIs` subdirectory of the intstall folder.)
 
-The syntax of AutoComplete files is simple, but does have a few rules, most importantly correct syntax and proper sorting. If the syntax is incorrect, the XML file will fail to load and AutoComplete will be disabled.

 Improper sorting (see below) can cause the AutoComplete function to behave erratic, causing it to fail on certain words.

         * NOTE: Sorting is performed with the assumption that all line-endings in the file are uniform and match the current selection for the file being edited -- the quickest way to check that selection is to glance at the status bar, where the current line-ending type is shown either as `Windows (CR LF)`, `Unix (LF)` or `Macintosh (CR)`.  It might be desirable to check the line-ending types in your file before executing a sorting operation, and use the `Edit > EOL Conversion >` choices or right-click on the Status Bar's EOL indicator to fix the line endings if necessary.
