Thank you, Hubert. I'm sorry for the delay in getting these updates applied.

Updates applied as follows:

  * Hubert stated that the "abstract character" definition from the
    Unicode Standard can be broadly applied_and thus should only be used
    when a broad interpretation is actually intended_.
  * ...
  * Hubert pointed out a category error in the proposed wording change
    for the codecvt facets; "code point" is used where "code unit" would
    be more appropriate.
  * _Hubert further explained that the first bullet describes the
    artifacts produced by an encoding where as the second bullet names
    an encoding; both bullets should be written such that they can be
    easily read as specifying encodings._
