FIXED: Some odd typos in README and note.pod.

Browse Source 
FIXED:          if ShortCd was on and one used "cd 3" and after that "cd .."
                then the current topic was wrong (empty $PATH).
FIXED:          if the current topic contained no notes and one created a new
                note without specifying a topic, then note did not add a
                proper topic (also because of empty $PATH).
CHANGED:        the default colors are now visible both on black and white
                backgrounds, see next entry.
ADDED:          two more color values: <white_black> and <bold>.
CHANGED:        the color hash is now in ::main instead of ::C.
