bug#10228: 24.0.92; doc string of `read-from-minibuffer' is incorrect (regression)

[Drew Adams]

In Emacs 24 the doc string was changed wrt DEFAULT-VALUE.  It no longer
says that a non-nil READ arg plus empty user input returns
DEFAULT-VALUE.  It says that if READ is non-nil then DEFAULT-VALUE is
the default to `read' if the user enters empty input.  And it
incorrectly says that if READ is non-nil then `read-from-minibuffer does
not return DEFAULT-VALUE for empty input - it returns the empty string.
And it says nothing about what happens when READ is nil.
 
The doc string was clearer and was correct in previous Emacs releases.

Fixed, thanks.
