   # Rationale for this change
   
   @Jefffrey  suggested renaming these fields would help make it even more 
clear that the offset and lengths in `BooleanBuffer` are in terms of bits (not 
bytes)
   
   # What changes are included in this PR?
   
   Update field names and improve some more comments
   
   # Are these changes tested?
   
   
   # Are there any user-facing changes?
   
   No, this is internal field name and documentation changes only
   
   I did consider deprecating `BooleanBuffer::len` and renaming it to 
`BooleanBuffer::bit_len` and similarly for offset, but that seems overly 
aggressive for downstream consumers (they have to make changes for no obvious 
benefit 🤔 )
