May I suggest the following changes in some of the doc strings related
to this feature? In addition to rewording, it also reformats the way
the strings are presented, so that it is easy to spot when we exceed
the width of the screen and need to break long lines.

* record.c (_initialize_record): Reformat and clarify doc strings
for stop-at-limit and insn-number-max.
