commit 16ea65701456ce7071f56d337f518d49a03e723f

    Add command to recenter errors from Occur/Grep buffers
    
    To scroll up/down the current displayed occurrence/error
    without abandon the Occur/Grep buffer.
    
    Add also a command 'recenter-other-window' to recenter
    the other window from any kind of buffer.
    
    * lisp/window.el (recenter-other-window): New command.
    Bind recenter-other-window to M-C-l.
    
    * lisp/simple.el (this-error-recenter): New command.
    * lisp/progmodes/grep.el (grep-mode-map):
    Delete bidings for n and p.
    
    * lisp/progmodes/compile.el (compilation-minor-mode-map):
    Move here the n and p bindings.
    Bind `this-error-recenter' to l.
    * lisp/replace.el (occur-mode-map):
    Same.
    
    * etc/NEWS (Changes in Specialized Modes and Packages in Emacs 28.1):
    Announce the changes.
