* bug#27927: 25.2; Doc string of `region-extract-function'

This doc string now reads a bit like a kludge was added to what was
there before.  There is nothing that should now favor the meaning of the
argument as "delete".  The parameter should be renamed from DELETE to
just ACTION or ARG (or something else).

"If DELETE is `delete-only'...
 If DELETE is nil...
 If DELETE is `bounds', then don't delete, but..."

Change that to something like

"If ACTION is `delete-only'...
 If ACTION is nil...
 If ACTION is `bounds'...

Actually, there is: the call to filter-buffer-substring.  But I don't
think that's strong enough, so I fixed the doc string.

Thanks.
