We now use illuaminate[1]'s linting facilities to check the rom and
bios.lua for a couple of common bugs and other problems.
Right now this doesn't detect any especially important bugs, though it
has caught lots of small things (unused variables, some noisy code). In
the future, the linter will grow in scope and features, which should
allow us to be stricter and catch most issues.
As a fun aside, we started off with ~150 bugs, and illuaminate was able
to fix all but 30 of them, which is pretty neat.

In no particular order:
bios.lua - added missing test for ensure turtle folder exists.
paintutils.lua - added drawLineHorizontal() to reduce most (not all) cases of running multiple writes on same horizontal line that can be solved with one write.
textutils.lua - Added exception to complete function - will not complete if provided with LuaKeyword - solves do->dofile problem and removes other LuaKeyword related ones in advance.
edit.lua - Changed logic in handling the paste event - if paste event is received when menu is open it automatically closed said menu and lets it paste - resolves ctrl+ctrl+v annoyance. Added Jump to Menu functions - allows for fast jump to needed line - must for bigger files and a nice feature to have.
set.lua - Switched set to use pagedPrint - this will ensure that even if there are more settings than lines on screen the set command will show you all of them.
startup.lua - Added autocompletition for turtle programs go, turn, equip, unequip and command program exec.
lua.lua - Changed return function to print returned stuff correctly -
will print all returned variables even if there are any nils in there.
