Refactor majorly for 0.2.0v0.2.0

- Do report counts of trimmed and deleted lines (and distinguish them
accurately)
- Fully backport to 6.0 (no cursor() func in that version)
- Don't substitute on lines without trailing space

+strip\_trailing\_whitespace.vim
+===============================
+
+This plugin provides a mapping target and an optional custom command with the
+author's approach to stripping trailing whitespace from an entire buffer,
+including removing empty or whitespace-only lines at the end of the buffer,
+without making command noise and without moving the cursor from its current
+position.
+
+This is a very commonly written and implemented plugin, but I wrote my own
+because I could not find a plugin that did this in exactly the way I wanted:
+
+- Provide a `<Plug>` mapping
+- Provide a user command to do the stripping as well if wanted
+- Strip trailing lines as well as trailing spaces, reporting both
+- Work with even very old Vim (>=6.0)
+- Work with a single `undo`
+- Don't move the cursor
+- Don't change the search pattern
+- Don't define an `autocmd`
+- Don't force a key mapping
+- Don't define a global function
