Consistency about byte vs character in string.texi
* manual/string.texi (String and Array Utilities): Distinguish more carefully among bytes, multibyte characters, and wide characters. Use "byte" when talking about C 'char', to distinguish it more clearly from multibyte characters. Say "wide character" or "multibyte character" instead of "character", when a wide or multibyte character is intended. Similarly for "multibyte string" versus "string". Define these terms more carefully.
