Move the text that notes the requirement that feature test macros
must be defined before including any header files to the top of
the page, and highlight the text further, so that the reader will
not miss this point.

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.

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.

Octal and hexadecimal values are right, but there are some
off-by one errors in decimal values. Correct values are
printed by this command:
perl -pi -e 'if (s/^([0-7]+)\t([0-9]+)\t([0-9a-fA-F]+)//)
{printf "%03o\t%d\t%s", hex($3), hex($3), $3;};' man7/*.7

All definitions of the Epoch have been refactored to the following:
1970-01-01 00:00:00 +0000 (UTC)
That form is more consistent, logical, precise, and internationally
recognizable than the other variants.
Also, some wording has been altered as well.
