Done. This half-finished change of replacing an obsolete `C-w' in the
isearch editing minibuffer with `M-s w' was already mentioned in NEWS in
the section "Incompatible Editing Changes". So no more changes for an
incremental word search are necessary in NEWS. I only added a few words
about starting a *nonincremental* word search using `M-s w RET' and
`M-s w C-r RET' instead of `C-s RET C-w' and `C-r RET C-w' (with other
related fixes).
