Mention outli, and h speed-key

Outli <https://github.com/jdtsmith/outli> is a small mode I wrote which very closely follows org in style and uses the same speed-keys on comments-as-headlines.  Basically if you know org, outli will be usable “out of the box”.  It might be good to mention outli in the Worg page <https://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-outside-org.html> on org capabilities outside of org.

To quote from the README:

> • How does this relate to outline-minor-mode?
> 
> outli is mostly a convenient wrapper around functionality that is already built-in to outline, adding a few things like narrow-to-subtree and insert-heading-respect-content (ala org). And of course the speed-key bindings, automatic comments-as-header patterns, and styling.

One speed key I added to outli I really miss in org, so I added it:

(if-let ((pos (cl-position '("Outline Visibility") org-speed-commands :test #'equal)))
      (cl-pushnew '("h" . outline-hide-sublevels) (nthcdr (1+ pos) org-speed-commands)))

Basically h=outline-hide-sublevels.  This allows you to quickly collapse the entire tree to the level [h]ere.  It’s a wonderful, fast compromise between the ease of Shift-Tab and org’s more targeted folding capabilities.

Thanks for your work on org!

It is more visible, but I am trying to understand what o you consider
better then outline-minor-mode

It sets up headline regexps automatically and consistently, and adds configurable styling and org-inspired speed keys on headings.  At core it is still outline mode.  Think of it like org-ified outshine-light.

I have tried this in fundamental mode:

>> Ok here

Hello there

>>> And Ok here

Then I was M-x outli-mode and I was thinking headlines will now appear
automatically, but nothing appeared there.

I don't get it though I find it fancy and nice.
