[racket-dev] u8vector-cpointer documented but unimplemented

[John Clements]

The function u8vector-cpointer is documented, but doesn't exist; this is 
presumably because the u8vector functions are actually byte-string functions, 
but it's not clear to me whether the absence of u8vector-cpointer is an 
oversight or whether it would violate abstractions in bad ways and hence simply 
shouldn't exist.

I think it's just an oversight, and I'll fix it.
