cutting: do nothing when trying to chop a word leftward at start of file

Instead of marking the buffer as modified, provide the feedback that
"nothing was cut", like when trying to chop a word rightward at the
end of the buffer.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?57015.

Bug existed since version 4.4, commit 4314b8de.
