[PATCH] correced example in zle doc



Hi,

the given example in the zshzle man page does not follow the suggestion to check substrings in $ZLE_STATE in alphabetically order. (For reference: The alphabetically sorting was introduced in 30425.)

With the attached path the example works now as intended; credit for discovering that bug in the doc goes to Volker Siegel (http://superuser.com/questions/691925/zsh-how-to-zle-widgets-directly/691935#comment1060599_691935).
