This commit adds "parameter" to the glossary, improves and consolidates the
"argument" glossary entry, and adds a question to the FAQ on the difference
between arguments and parameters.

This commit also moves the documentation for the str built-in function to
the new class entry.  Links to :class:`str` now go to the class entry with
the string methods immediately afterwards.
