java.io bulk read(...) end-of-stream return value descriptions ambiguous

Summary

Modify the descriptions of the return value for some bulk read (read(byte[],int,int)) methods in java.io to be consistent and more accurate.

Problem

The descriptions of the return value for some bulk read (read(byte[],int,int)) methods in java.io are inconsistent and ambiguous.

Solution

Change the problematic verbiage to:

the total number of bytes read into the buffer, or -1 if there is no more data because the end of the stream has been reached.
