This patch addresses the following existing issue:
In the output of `C-h f with-delayed-message RET`, the word `message` in
the function name is incorrectly highlighted with `help-argument-name`.
This can be seen also with a definition such as:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun foo-bar (baz)
"Frobnicate BAZ.
\(fn (foo bar))"
nil)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Now `C-h f foo-bar RET` shows both `foo` and `bar` in the function name
with `help-argument-name` (as well as the `foo` and `bar` arguments).
The attached patch tweaks the regular expression that
`help-do-arg-highlight` uses to find argument occurrences such that it
skips the function name.
