[mercury-users] Documentation for io module.

Hi.

I think that the documentation for io module is lacking some vital information.

I've just spent some time debugging my code, as I didn't know what
could be a possible problem. It turned out that io.read_line_as_string
is actually returning the line together with the newline character,
which came as a big surprise to me.

I think this fact should be reflected in the documentation, especially
that other languages I've been using don't leave the newline in the
result, which is usually much more convenient.

Best regards,
