status bar: INSRT/OVER -> 'Overwrite' shown only when in overwrite mode.

Idea by Mirek M. - thank you!  Additionally introduced a tooltip showing more
verbose text when in overwrite mode.

So this is not a bug, but a feature. Nobody updated the documentation to match
the change.

Due to this problem the topic might be discussed by the UX team again after
these 8 years:
(In reply to Peter Eisentraut from comment #0)
Obviously, this is highly weird.  Also, since there is no "Insert" key on OS
X, enabling overwrite mode is a bit difficult.
