inotify.7: Clarify with events are generated for watched directories
...
Really, with respect to watched directories, events fall into
three classes (not two, as was shown):
* Events that can be generated only for the watched directory.
* Events that can be generated only for objects that are inside
the watched directory.
* Events that can be generated both for the watched directory
and for objects inside the directory.
So, mark these three classes more clearly in the list of inotify
events.

printf.3: Remove libc4 and libc5 details
...
Rich Felker noted that "scare text" in the man page warned about
the use of snprintf() on libc, and that some people had cited
this as a reason not to use snprintf(). Linux libc is now
ancient history, so there is no real need to keep that text.
But, while we're at it, we may as well clear out all of the
other ancient libc4 and libc5 pieces in the page. They are
nowadays more clutter than help.
