Change 'character(s)' to 'byte(s)' to make clear that these
functions operate on bytes, not wide / UTF8 characters.
(POSIX uses 'byte(s)' similarly, to make this point.)

Bring more consistency to the discussion of
"[terminating] null byte"
by writing (at least in the initial use in a page)
"[terminating] null byte ('\0')".
