(quail-translation-docstring): New variable. (quail-show-keyboard-layout): Docstring modified. (quail-select-current): Likewise. (quail-build-decode-map): Change arg MAP to MAP-LIST to avoid infinite recursive call. (quail-help): Check quail-translation-docstring. Format of the output changed. (quail-help-insert-keymap-description): Adjusted for the above change.
