tdf#148797 improve explanation of multiple selection in add to list
Some of the options for using the Add to List command are not
available when the Ctrl key is pressed. The existing description of
how to use the Ctrl key may have contributed to confusion about
how to use the command. This patch aims to improve the
description of the workflow with multiple selection.
Also the order of the two procedures were switched, on the
assumption that the most typical use was to add some consecutive
items to a list, so now that explanation comes first.
