bug#50726: 26.3; Let `count-words(-region)' count only words entirely within the region

[Drew Adams]

Enhancement request.

A word that straddles the beginning or end of the region is counted as a
word in the region.  It would be good to be able to have such functions
not count such partial words.

Here's an example of a command that counts the words in a rectangular
region.  By default it excludes words that straddle the row boundaries,
but a prefix arg counts such partial words also.

Admittedly, this difference is not so important for a non-rectangular
region, as it has only two boundaries, and a user can see interactively
whether the text at the beginning or end forms a real word.  But when
called from Lisp, if you want to exclude such partial words you need to
write some code to adjust the count.
