BTree: improve public descriptions and comments

BTreeSet has always used the term "value" next to and meaning the same thing as "elements" (in the mathematical sense but also used for key-value pairs in BTreeMap), while in the BTreeMap sense these "values" are known as "keys" and definitely not "values". Today I had enough of that.
