dd: remove references to the word BLOCKS from help and texi docs
The renaming from BLOCKS to N was done in v8.15-38-g140eca1, and documentation for N was added again in v8.17-26-g4f2e9d5 without noticing that. Now, finally remove the word BLOCKS from the documentation. * src/dd.c (usage): Remove the word BLOCKS. * doc/coreutils.texi (dd invocation): Likewise. Improved by: Bernhard Voelker <mail@bernhard-voelker.de>

+The numeric-valued strings above (@var{n} and @var{bytes})
can be followed by a multiplier: @samp{b}=512, @samp{c}=1,
@samp{w}=2, @samp{x@var{m}}=@var{m}, or any of the
standard block size suffixes like @samp{k}=1024 (@pxref{Block size}).
