docs: Adjust as_int documentation to match implementation

Also remove the description of behavior for trailing non-numeric characters.
It's likely this will become a parse error in the future so better leave it
as unspecified for now.

Fixes #80.

-`as_int`, `as_uint`, `as_llong`, `as_ullong`, `as_double` and `as_float` convert attribute values to numbers. If attribute handle is null or attribute value is empty, `def` argument is returned (which is 0 by default). Otherwise, all leading whitespace characters are truncated, and the remaining string is parsed as an integer number in either decimal or hexadecimal form (applicable to `as_int`, `as_uint`, `as_llong` and `as_ullong`; hexadecimal format is used if the number has `0x` or `0X` prefix) or as a floating point number in either decimal or scientific form (`as_double` or `as_float`). Any extra characters are silently discarded, i.e. `as_int` will return `1` for string `"1abc"`.

 CAUTION: Number conversion functions depend on current C locale as set with `setlocale`, so may return unexpected results if the locale is different from `"C"`.
