Thanks @RogerRiggs and @liach, I've started updating the CSR and will make the 
changes in the PR to rename it from `getByteLength`.

I wasn't sure what the overall approach is for JDK APIs of when to include a 
`get` prefix. I think that either `getEncodedLength(Charset cs)` or 
`encodedLength(Charset cs)` are good options, happy to go with whichever the 
Core Libraries team thinks is best :)
