The detect branch fixes #981 
<https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/issues/981> and #977 
<https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/issues/977>, which imo are 
actually the same issue.

As discussed in the last comment of #981 
<https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/issues/981#issuecomment-456800515>, 
the new code is not perfect.  It does not prevent a user from opening a 
file several times in an external editor.  Imo, warning about such 
situations would quickly become unpleasant. The root of this (slight) 
problem is that there is no easy and *fast* way to know whether the 
external editor is still editing the file.

All comments and suggestions are welcome.  However, I plan no further work 
unless something is *seriously* wrong with the new code.
