I just found out on Info 'Eshell/Bugs and Ideas' an entry about
'Documentation incomplete', but this page comes after 'Extension
modules'. Perhaps should we change the order of these pages or be more
explicit that the documentation is incomplete on the blank pages?

Attached are some patches to finish the Eshell documentation, targeting Emacs 30 (they could probably be backported to 29 without much work, but I've made some other changes to the Eshell manual in 30 already...)

Here are the main notable parts in these patches:

* I moved the documentation for all disabled-by-default commands into the Optional Modules section. This way, it's more clearer (IMO) that these commands aren't available by default, since all the off-by-default features are together.

* I mostly copied the Key Rebinding and Smart Scrolling sections' documentation from their corresponding Elisp files. I don't know a ton about them (especially not Smart Scrolling), so it would be hard for me to write all-new documentation for them. Hopefully what I have here is still an improvement.
