doc: clarify --zero-terminated option
* src/join.c (usage): Reword to avoid implication that the NUL byte is only generated as the output delimeter. * src/sort.c (usage): Likewise. * src/shuf.c (usage): Likewise. Also since we're changing the translation string take the opportunity to separate out the description to a separate string to reduce translation overhead. * src/uniq.c (usage): Likewise. * src/stty.c (usage): s/null/NUL/ for consistency. * src/basename.c (usage): Reword for accuracy/consistency. * src/dirname.c (usage): Likewise. * src/du.c (usage): Likewise. * src/env.c (usage): Likewise. * src/printenv.c (usage): Likewise. * src/readlink.c (usage): Likewise. * src/realpath.c (usage): Likewise. * doc/coreutils.texi: Consolidate/share the descriptions of --null, --zero and --zero-terminated.
