Michael Kerrisk 6dea120e68 Fix 'dir' argument name: should be 'dirp'.
POSIX.1-2008 and glibc call this argument 'dirp' (consistent
with the fact that it is a *pointer* to a DIR structure).

Michael Kerrisk 28d88c1751 Global change to many pages...
Various pages use inconsistent terms for 'null byte' (which
is the C99/SUSv3 term for the '\0' character).
To rectify this the following changes were made in these pages:

Replace 'zero byte' with 'null byte'.
Replace 'null character' with 'null byte'.
Replace 'nulls' with 'null bytes'.
Replace 'NUL-terminated' by 'null-terminated'.
Replace 'NUL' by 'null byte'.
Replace 'terminating NUL' by 'terminating null byte'.
Replace 'final NUL' by 'terminating null byte'.
Replace 'NUL character' by 'null byte'.
