doc: avoid referring to C array size by tniessen · Pull Request #35300 · nodejs/node

@tniessen

The size of arrays is measured in bytes in C, not in the number of
elements. The napi_get_cb_info function takes the length of the
array, that is, the number of elements it can contain, and not its size.
