-----------------------------------------------------------

Changed gettotaloffsetminutes to totaloffsetminutes. This verb form stuck out between all the noun forms, now it really clashes with totalseconds.

Also changed its return type from Int16 to Int32 which is used by year, month, day, hour, minute.

Services MAY support the undocumented old-style name.

> Both the hour() and hours() function returns an integer, and as the values returned are in the range of 0..23, the plural form of the name is more appropriate.
> Same reasoning for minute() and minutes(), second() and seconds().
> Btw., why do second() and seconds() return integers? We allow fractional seconds for DateTimeOffset, Duration, and TimeOfDay.
