(bibtex-search-entry): Rename from bibtex-find-entry. Add outoload cookie. (bibtex-find-entry): Alias for bibtex-search-entry. (bibtex-search-crossref): Rename from bibtex-find-crossref. (bibtex-find-crossref): Alias for bibtex-search-crossref. (bibtex-clean-entry): atomic-change-group removed. (bibtex-format-entry): Use atomic-change-group. Use unwind-protect to locate buffer location where error occured. Make error messages more specific. (bibtex-parse-keys): Only parse if buffer uses bibtex-mode.
