Michael Kerrisk 9640b1b311 memchr.3: Clarify description, omitting mention of "strings" and "characters"
The existing text slipped into talking about characters and
strings, which could mislead readers into thing that, for
example, searches for the byte '\0' are treated specially.
Therefore, rewrite in terms of "bytes" and "memory areas".

At the same time, make a few source file clean-ups.
