Hello all,

These are just a few grammar/consistency/pluralization fixes for the Socket.IO README.md. The content is unchanged, but the English is a bit more natural.

When maxHttpBufferSize is large (1e8 bytes), a payload of length 100MB
can be sent like so:

99999991:422222222222222222222222222222222222222222222...

This massive packet can cause OOM via building up many many
`ConsOneByteString` objects due to concatenation:
99999989 `ConsOneByteString`s and then converting the massive integer to
a `Number`.

The performance can be improved to avoid this by using `substring`
rather than building the string via concatenation.

Below I tried one payload of length 7e7 as the 1e8 payload took so
long to process that it timed out before running out of memory.

```
