bug#23827: 25.1.50; tab-width file-local variable has no effect in etc/HELLO

[Eli Zaretskii]

From: eliz@HOME-C4E4A596F7.i-did-not-set--mail-host-address--so-tickle-me
--text follows this line--
To reproduce:

  emacs -Q
  C-h H

Observe the messed-up alignment of the second column.  The reason is
that the tab-width file-local variable setting didn't take effect;
setting the variable by hand fixes the display.

I suspect this change:

      Correct hack-local-variables change from Thu May 5 11:05:49 2016 +0000

      Prevent hack-local-variables being called from the fundamental-mode mode 
call
      early in normal-mode.  This fixes bug #23460 and bug #23463.

      * lisp/files.el (normal-mode) Replace call to fundamental-mode with calls 
to
      the things it calls, with the exception of hack-local-variables.

      * etc/NEWS: Add an entry to note the calling of hack-local-variables at 
each
      major mode initialization.
