Euphoria Ticket #787: Document edge cases for builtins and standard library routines

Sometime ago, it was proposed that we change match behavior to return 0 if the needle passed in an empty sequence. Currently match crashes with an error, and this unexpected case is not documented. Standard library routines do not handle this as a special case so we have an error inside a standard library routine when needle is empty. This case is not documented.
