First, two questions, to hopefully avoid further changes after pushing:
i. Currently no defcustom in master has `:version "26.1"' but several
have `:version "25.2"', so should the latter be used here too?
ii. Is the following NEWS entry ok, both in content and location?
diff --git a/etc/NEWS b/etc/NEWS

+** The new user option 'mouse-select-region-move-to-beginning'
+controls the position of point when double-clicking mouse-1 on the end
+of a parenthetical grouping or string-delimiter: the default value nil
+keeps point at the end of the region, setting it to non-nil moves
+point to the beginning of the region.

** 'find-library-name' will now fall back on looking at 'load-history'
to try to locate libraries that have been loaded with an explicit path
