This changes the main documentation, doc strings, source code comments, and a
couple error messages in the test suite. In some cases the word was removed
or edited some other way to fix the grammar.
- clarified the distinction between text encodings and other codecs
- clarified relationship with builtin open and the io module
- consolidated documentation of error handlers into one section
- clarified type constraints of some behaviours
- added tests for some of the new statements in the docs
str.encode, bytes.decode and bytearray.decode now use an
internal API to throw LookupError for known non-text encodings,
rather than attempting the encoding or decoding operation and
then throwing a TypeError for an unexpected output type.
The latter mechanism remains in place for third party non-text
encodings.

Issue #6268: More bugfixes about BOM, UTF-16 and UTF-32
* Fix seek() method of codecs.open(), don't write the BOM twice after seek(0)
* Fix reset() method of codecs, UTF-16, UTF-32 and StreamWriter classes
* test_codecs: use "w+" mode instead of "wt+". "t" mode is not supported by
Solaris or Windows, but does it really exist? I found it the in the issue.

Rememder: don't touch the code just before a commit
........
document and rename things to make seek/tell workings a little clearer.
Add a weird decoder for testing TextIOWrapper's seek/tell methods.
Document the getstate/setstate protocol conventions for IncrementalDecoders.
