defaults: 'showcmd', 'belloff', 'ruler'

- Vim "unix default" of 'noshowcmd' is serving few users. And it's
  inconsistent.
- 'ruler' and 'belloff=all' improve the out-of-the-box experience.
- Continue to use 'noshowcmd' and 'noruler' by default in the functional
  tests to keep them fast.

TODO: Add a "disable slow stuff" command or mapping to address the
use-case of a very slow terminal connection.
