Stefan advised it for `forward-symbol' and after looking at
`thingatpt.el', I agreed with him.  The other two (`forward-same-syntax'
and `forward-whitespace') were very similar so I followed the same
logic:

1) simple, generally useful, small

2) use only basic Emacs commands and no commands from `thingatpt.el'

3) seem consistent with the rest of `subr.el'

Perhaps we can have `motion.el' or something, but with the current
layout `subr.el' seems the best place.
