This CL improves the readability of the tests in the bytes package by
naming the `data` test variable `testString`, using the same convention
as its counterpart, `testBytes`.
It additionally removes some type casting which was unnecessary.

CL/19862 (f79b50b8d5) recently introduced the constants
SeekStart, SeekCurrent, and SeekEnd to the io package. We should use these constants
consistently throughout the code base.

Currently, there is no easy allocation-free way to turn a
[]byte or string into an io.Reader. Thus, we add a Reset method
to bytes.Reader and strings.Reader to allow the reuse of these
Readers with another []byte or string.
This is consistent with the fact that many standard library io.Readers
already support a Reset method of some type:
bufio.Reader
flate.Reader
gzip.Reader
zlib.Reader
debug/dwarf.LineReader
bytes.Buffer
crypto/rc4.Cipher
Fixes#15033

As noted on recently on golang-nuts, there's currently no way to know
the total size of a strings.Reader or bytes.Reader when using ReadAt
on them. Most callers resort to wrapping it in an io.SectionReader to
retain that information.
The SizeReaderAt abstraction (an io.ReaderAt with a Size() int64
method) has proven useful as a way of expressing a concurrency-safe
read-only number of bytes.
As one example, see http://talks.golang.org/2013/oscon-dl.slide#49 and
the rest of that presentation for its use in dl.google.com.
SizeReaderAt is also used in the open source google-api-go-client, and
within Google's internal codebase, where it exists in a public package
created in 2013 with the package comment: "These may migrate to the
standard library after we have enough experience with their feel."
I'm still as happy with the SizeReaderAt abstraction and its
composabilty as I was in 2013, so I'd like to make these two Readers
also be SizeReaderAts.
