bug#4829: holidays.el needs to put initial values for autoloaded vars in pure storage

[Dan Nicolaescu]

For things like:
holiday-general-holidays
at least the strings need to be in pure storage (maybe the list elements too?)

If you think it's worthwhile, feel free.


(None of these variables really need to be autoloaded, but there is no
compatible way to change it now. I already tried once:

I would suggest just the strings, so that it doesn't make it quite so

about it much. With the obsolete ones (hebrew-holidays-#), might as
well do the list elements as well. Thanks.
