update uniform vector docs
* doc/ref/api-compound.texi (Uniform Numeric Vectors): Make a subsection of "Vectors", and link out to SRFI-4, where the main text has been moved. * doc/ref/api-data.texi (Bytevectors as Uniform Vectors): New section. * doc/ref/srfi-modules.texi (SRFI-4): Move body of uniform vector docs here. Discuss new module separation. Discuss relation to bytevectors.
