1. Type `C-h n'
=> The NEWS buffer is displayed without icons on the header lines,
although the value of `outline-minor-mode-use-buttons' is `(derived-mode
. special-mode)'.

2. Type `C-c C-n' to move point to the first NEWS header "* Installation
Changes in Emacs 29.1" and then type TAB
=> Now there is an outline-close icon (emoji) at the beginning of the
header, the header has lost its first-level fontification and the NEWS
buffer is flagged as modified in the mode line. But instead of hiding
the current header line's body as per outline-cycle, there is no other
change in the buffer.

3. Type TAB again
=> forward-button is executed instead of outline-cycle, indicating that
the line with the icon is now not being treated as an outline header
line.  And typing `M-< C-c C-n' now puts point on the first second level
header below the line with the icon.

4. Move point back to the icon and type RET
=> The icon changes to outline-open but there is otherwise no change in
the outline structure, and the message "Before first heading" is
displayed.

5. Type `C-c @ C-q' (outline-hide-sublevels)
=> The outline-close icon is inserted at the start of the second-level
header below the current line and after the icon only "..."  is
displayed, i.e. all remaing text in the buffer has vanished.
Repeatedly typing RET toggles the icon between outline-open and
outline-close and displays the message "Before first heading" but the
text remains hidden.  (Typing `C-c @ C-a' unhides the text.)


The attached patch appears to fix the problems described above, but the
only buffer using outline-minor-mode beside NEWS that I've tested it on
is *Help* showing the output of describe-bindings, and the seems to work
as expected with the patch (and due to the patch is not flagged as
modified, though that isn't important for *Help*.)
