Document sv_magic() changes brought about by sv_magicext()
Change 14335 made sv_magic() a wrapper to a new sv_magicext(),
but didn't update the documentation for sv_magic() to reflect
the changed handling of the name/namlen arguments.
Also correct a couple of typos, and mention sv_magicext() in
perlguts.
