* Add a "report formatting info for text under this braille cell" command. * Assign the Alva BC6 secondary cursor routing keys to the new report formatting command. * Update copyrights. * Update user guide for the new Alva BC6 key assignment. * Also use the new report formatting braille command in both Papenmeier drivers. This removes their "route to and report formatting" behavior. Instead, it now only reports formatting without routing the cursor. * Address review actions. * Update user docs. * Add the report text formatting under braille cell command to the EuroBraille displays. * Revert browseable message for the report text formatting under braille cell command. * Incorporate PR #7990. * Add translator comment

Link to issue number:
Fixes #7869
Summary of the issue:
When pressing the reportFormatting script multiple times, such as for showing the formatting in browseMode, the formatting can be different from the first time you press it.
The reason is that code in the reportFormatting script (or code it calls) may mutate the TextInfo such as expanding to line etc. Which then means that asking for the formatting is asking for a different position.
The reviewPosition could be copied before fetching formatting.
Description of how this pull request fixes the issue:
The reportFormatting script now makes sure to copy the reviewPosition first.
Testing performed:
Followed the steps to reproduce in #7869 with success.
