Improve description of bit32.extract/replace. (#585)
Fix description incorrectly saying that parameter w specifies an upper range. w is actually a width. Proof: print(bit32.extract(2^32-1, 3, 4)) -- prints 15, not 1. Also indicate that the position is 0-based, and that the function will error if the selected range exceeds the allowed bounds.
