Improve documentation of hooks related to saving buffers
* lisp/files.el (write-file-functions, write-contents-functions)
(before-save-hook, after-save-hook): Note that these are only used
by save-buffer.
* doc/lispref/backups.texi (Auto-Saving):
* doc/lispref/files.texi (Saving Buffers): Mention that
save-related hooks are not run by auto-saving. (Bug#25460)
