Hello!
The specification states:
"""
If the length of the specified CharSequence is less than or equal to
zero, then an empty buffer of capacity 16 is returned.

However, the current implementation throws either
NegativeArraySizeException or IndexOutOfBounds instead (the actual
exception type depends on the value of reported negative length).
How can you have a negative length CharSequence ??
If its an empty CharSequence then it should return the empty buffer as
indicated.
Cheers,

It is proposed to do two things:
1) remove the problematic sentence from the javadoc (CSR is filed).
2) unify the exception type thrown, if the argument reports negative
length.
NegativeArraySizeException will be consistent with, for example,
StringBuffer(negativeCapacity).
Would you please help review the fix?
