realpath.3: Remove note about Solaris possible returning an relative path
...
As reported by Casper Dik:
For some reason, many of the realpath() manual pages (BSD, Linux)
have words to the following effect:
Solaris may return a relative pathname when the path argument
is relative.
I have looked through the Solaris source files and have found no
such bug reported or fixed; the implementation from at least 1997
and beyond certainly doesn't have this problem and even the older
versions prepend getcwd() or chdir() to dirname and run getcwd()
in that directory.
Solaris does have a system call which may return relative
pathnames: resolvepath(). I believe that that function may have
confused earlier writers of realpath() manual pages and this was
later copied without verifying that fact.
realpath() existed in Solaris 2.0 as it came from SVr4.0 and even
at that time it returned the full, non-relative path.

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.)

Some of the sockets/network protocol pages included names of

it adds little value in those pages that did do this. So, remove
