Rename "sensitive-mode" and "insensitive-mode" into "scannerless-mode" and "scanner-mode" #9

Closed phorward closed 5 years ago

When UniCC was developed around 2009, it was heavily oriented on the feature provided by the Anagram parser generator from Parsifal Software. Therefore, the enabled modes had been named "context-sensitive" and "context-insensitive" mode because it influences the way how whitespace handling is done.

These modes should be entirely be renamed, so than UniCC can work in a "scannerless" mode (which corresponds to the "context-sensitive mode" and in a "scanner"-mode which corresponds to the "context-insensitve mode". The renaming should be done entirely throughout the source code and the manuals.
