Arc tool: the quarter-ellipse sector holds at Slope 100

A closed arc at a lower slope encloses less than the quarter ellipse. The
doc comment on arc and the Draw arcs entry now name Slope 100.

     Live curve fitting in the Pencil Tool Options is on by default; while it is off, the path shown while a stroke is drawn joins the stroke's points with straight segments, and the release fits the curve, as [Pencil Tool Options](https://web.archive.org/web/20261002104400/https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/draw-shapes-and-paths/draw-shapes/pencil-tool-options.html) describes (`path.freehand` `fit`).
     In the Pencil and Paintbrush Tool Options, Edit selected paths within 0 px turns editing off, so a stroke that starts exactly on an end of a selected open path draws a new path; Close paths when ends are within 0 px turns closing off, so a stroke that ends exactly where it started stays open.
     Before a press that draws a new path, the Pencil cursor shows a small star, as [Draw freeform paths with the Pencil tool](https://web.archive.org/web/20260926095638/https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/draw-shapes-and-paths/draw-shapes/draw-freeform-paths-with-the-pencil-tool.html) describes; over a selected path within Edit selected paths' distance, which the press continues from an end or redraws, the star is not shown ([Reshape paths with the Pencil tool](https://web.archive.org/web/20260106004407/https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/draw-shapes-and-paths/draw-shapes/reshape-paths-with-the-pencil-tool.html)).
