termios.3: Fix error in discussion of MIN > 0, TIME == 0 noncanonical mode
...
As reported by Peter Hurley, for the MIN > 0, TIME == 0 case:
read() may unblock when MIN bytes are available but return
up to the 'count' parameter if more input arrives in between
waking and copying into the user buffer.
...
read() may also _not_ return until MIN bytes have been
received, even if 'count' bytes have been received.
MTK: verified the above by experiment.
