Docs: Use non-default throughout the documentation
Hackers,
Ended up looking at "non-default" and found four spellings of "nondefault"
in the user-facing documentation (vs. 40ish non-default). Patch attached to
fix the 4.

I think "non" is not normally used with a hyphen, since it is not a
standalone word. So the fix should be the other way around.

Maybe it’s ironic.
I was looking at other words too, and indeed the absence of hyphen is
prevalent.
Agree on moving to nondefault.
