Split multibyte(3) into separate manual pages for each function.

Instead of just deleting it, turn the original page into a general
overview of the multibyte character conversion functions, somewhat
similar to stdio(3).

+.Sh NAME
+.Nm wctomb
+.Nd convert a wide-character code to a character
+.Sh LIBRARY
+.Lb libc
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In stdlib.h
+.Ft int
+.Fn wctomb "char *mbchar" "wchar_t wchar"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Fn wctomb
+function converts a wide character
+.Fa wchar
+into a multibyte character and stores
+the result in
+.Fa mbchar .
+The object pointed to by
+.Fa mbchar
+must be large enough to accommodate the multibyte character, which
+may be up to
+.Dv MB_LEN_MAX
+bytes.
+.Pp
+A call with a null
+.Fa mbchar
+pointer returns nonzero if the current locale requires shift states,
+zero otherwise;
+if shift states are required, the shift state is reset to the initial state.
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+If
+.Fa mbchar
+is
+.Dv NULL ,
+the
+.Fn wctomb
+function returns nonzero if shift states are supported,
+zero otherwise.
+If
+.Fa mbchar
+is valid,
+.Fn wctomb
+returns
+the number of bytes processed in
+.Fa mbchar ,
+or \-1 if no multibyte character
+could be recognized or converted.
+.Sh ERRORS
+The
+.Fn wctomb
+function will fail if:
+.Bl -tag -width Er
+.\".It Bq Er EINVAL
+.\"Invalid argument.
+.It Bq Er EILSEQ
+An invalid multibyte sequence was detected.

+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr mbtowc 3 ,
+.Xr wcrtomb 3 ,
+.Xr wcstombs 3 ,
+.Xr wctob 3
+.Sh STANDARDS
+The
+.Fn wctomb
+function conforms to
+.St -isoC .
+.Sh BUGS
+The current implementation does not support shift states.
