This commit clarifies variables in the Filesystem docs.
Prior, the documentation for fs.write() had an ambiguous
remark on the parameters of offset and length.
Therefore, this commit makes explicit that the length parameter
in fs.write() is used to denote the number of bytes, which is
a clearer reference for its usage.

temporary folder, using a prefix as the path. The prefix is appended
six random characters. The callback function will receive the name
of the folder that was created.
Usage example:
fs.mkdtemp('/tmp/foo-', function(err, folder) {
console.log(folder);
// Prints: /tmp/foo-Tedi42
});
The fs.mkdtempSync version is also provided. Usage example:
console.log(fs.mkdtemp('/tmp/foo-'));
