Michael Kerrisk e47fa14cd1 gethostbyname.3: Rationalize text on POSIX.1-2001 obsolete interfaces
POSIX.1 marks gethostbyname(), gethostbyaddr(), and 'h_errno'
as obsolete.  The man page explained this, but with some
duplication.  Remove the duplication, and otherwise tidy up
discussion of this point.

Michael Kerrisk 546f67f3cd ctime.3: ctime_r() and localtime_r() need not set 'timezone' and 'daylight'
The man page already noted that these functions need not set
'tzname', but things could be clearer: it tzset() is not called,
then the other two variables also are not set.

Also, clarify that ctime() does set 'timezone' and 'daylight'.
