Subject: [PATCH] doc: od --strings: clarify operation

* doc/coreutils.texi (od invocation): Remove mention of ASCII,
as all printable characters in unibyte locales are output.
* src/od.c (usage): Clarify that only NUL terminated strings
are displayed, and that it's printable chars, not only graphic chars
that are output. I.e., spaces are output also if part of the string.
