These pages specify feature test macros in the function
prototypes. Add a reference to feature_test_macros(7),
so that readers are pointed to the information that
feature test macros must be defined before including
*any* header file.

Michael Kerrisk e417acb023 fcntl.2, intro.2, open.2, poll.2, ftw.3, intro.3, matherr.3, system.3, tmpnam.3, unix.7: Note that feature test macros must be defined before *any* includes
Programmers often make the mistake of including a feature test
macro only after having already included some header files.
This patch adds some text at opportune places to remind
programmers to do things the right way.
