Summary: Docs for "es" and "et" confusing

Initial Comment:
The extending/embedding manual seems to contain
confusing docs for the PyArg_Parse* format codes "es"
and "es#". For example, the description for "es" states
that it reads one variable (the encoding) and writes
two variables; but in fact, it appears that it writes
only one variable (the buffer). The number of variables
written is consistently one too large.
