Christoph Anton Mitterer fe2e6f1975 doc: fix/improve documentation of jump/goto/return
Overhaul the description of `jump`/`goto`/`return`.
`jump` only explains what the statement causes from the point of view of the
new chain (that is: not, how the returning works), which includes that an
implicit `return` is issued at the end of the chain.
`goto` is explained in reference to `jump`.
`return` describes abstractly how the return position is determined and what
happens if there’s no position to return to (but not for example where an
implicit `return` is issued).

List and explain verdict-like statements like `reject` which internally imply
`accept` or `drop`.
Further explain that with respect to evaluation these behave like their
respectively implied verdicts.
