Update runtime files

- `col()`'s example was changed to use `:echowin` so that the message can be
seen with `showmode`. Use "\n" to force a hit-enter instead as `:echowin`
isn't ported.
- Replace interpolated string usage in syntax/modula3.vim (not ported).
- Add a space after the `wincmd =` examples in `*CTRL-W_=*` so that the inlined
code is highlighted properly when followed by a full stop.
