PS2 shows "cmdsubst" for process substitution

Those "cmdsubst" are a bit misleading. Would it be possible to
change it to those equalsubst, outsubst, insubst from
zsh_eval_context (or just procsubst for process substitution for
all 3)?

BTW, I've noted a couple of problems in the zsh_eval_context
doc, addressed in the patch attached:

- added the new ${ ... } and ${| ...} to the list where
  $zsh_eval_context has "cmdsubst"
- replaced the "file substitution" wording (not used anywhere
  else) with "process substitution" (from ksh and used
  elsewhere).
