Add example for from_byte() documenation

[jasonthompson]

I'm working on adding examples to the API documentation. Should future pull requests include examples for more than one function? Or is this about the right size for a pull request?

[huonw]

Please use these in qualified form, for clarity. I.e. the example could be:

```rust
use std::str;

let string = str::from_byte(66u8);

assert_eq!(string.as_slice(), "B");
```

Thanks, Huon. I hadn't thought of that approach. I'll redo it.

You can batch them up at whatever size you'd like. Smaller ones are easier to review. If you're going to be doing a lot, I'd say do three or four at a time.

Made changes as per huonw's suggestions.

Any idea why the CI Build is failing?

It times out every once in a while. I restarted it for you.
