Ronald Oussoren a68650553d Issue #17860: explicitly mention that std* streams are opened in binary mode by default.
The documentation does mention that the streams are opened in text mode
when univeral_newlines is true, but not that that they are opened in
binary mode when that argument is false and that seems to confuse at
least some users.
