[PATCH] string_copying.7: tfix

On some of the commas:  There are a few of instances of

	Subject verb object partclause, advphrase.

For example:

	This function catenates the input character sequence contained in a null-padded wixed-width buffer, into a destination string.
	| subject     | verb    | object                     | participial clause                           | adverbial phrase       |

Dropping the relative clause, there shouldn't be a comma preceding the
restrictive adverbial phrase: The input character sequence is really,
always catenated into a destination string; that is essential.

The participial clause, being non-restrictive---there is but one input
character sequence that could be meant---, should be enclosed by commas.
That is the existing comma's purpose and doesn't work without the added,
first comma.
