Remove editor option from edit() and use only EDITOR() (bug #40600) * edit.m: remove the option to specify a text editor for this function only to remove confusion about the 3 default text editors in Octave. Instead, check the value of EDITOR() everytime. * defaults.cc (FEDITOR): correct documentation since it is no longer only used by edit_history().
