bug#67028: 29.1; WDired should restore the previous `mode-name' when ret

Dunno how simple and sure this would be to do, but I think that when you
quit WDired the mode-line should show the same `mode-name' it showed
before you entered WDired.  E.g., if the `mode-name' was "Dired by name"
then it should be restored to that.

Instead, when you quit WDired the `mode-name' is always set to just
"Dired".  You lose the info that the sorting is by name or by date.

Seems like `wdired-change-to-dired-mode' could just save the `mode-name'
before it changes mode.  And then `wdired-change-to-dired-mode' to
restore that saved `mode-name' value.
