Errors and lacks in document "Built In Functions"

This is a patch to fix errors in document "Built In Functions".

# Heading of the result table of ROUND function is wrongly written as 
??CEIL(x)??
# "Syntax" clause of LAST_INDEX_OF function is wrongly written as 
??LAST_INDEX_OF(expression)??, but the function actually takes three arguments
# "Syntax" clause of REGEX_EXTRACT_ALL function is wrongly written as 
??REGEX_EXTRACT (string, regex)??
# An example of REPLACE function is terminated by a semicolon: 
??REPLACE(string,'software','wiki');??, but the semicolon is not necessary in 
Pig Latin syntax
# "limit" argument of STRSPLIT function is described as ??The number of times 
the pattern ... is applied??. But actually, _limit-1_ is the maximum number of 
times the pattern is applied, and "limit" means the maximum length of the 
result tuple (if the value is positive). If the value is 0 or negative, not 
limit is applied.
# An example program of TOP function does not work, because it uses ??COUNT(*)??
# Fixes typos
  # "COUNT_STAR is used -the- +to+ count ..."
  # "delimit in JsonLoader or -JsonStorer- +JsonStorage+ ..."
  # "using field -deliminters- +delimiters+ ..."
  # "If you store -reading- +using+ delimiter "#" ..."
  # "The STORE -function- +statement+ specifies that the files ..."
  # "Limit" -> "limit" in a term definition of STRSPLIT function
