A binding browser object (one given by the $browser_object keyword to
define_key) can always be overridden by an interactive browser object.
This is inconsistent with the browser object precedence rules for ordinary
default browser objects, which say that a non-null constant browser object
cannot be overridden by an interactive browser object.  It's a small
point.  Do we even care?

It is worth removing this inconsistency because the precedence rules for browser objects would then be
comprehensible.  And it doesn't seem to be useful.

It may further be worth having define_key fail if a non-null constant browser object on the command is
overridden by the binding.
