The comments in <cinttypes> were copied from the TR1 implementation,
this updates them w.r.t C++11, including removing the "likely a
defect" comment because 27.9.2/4 clarifies that abs and div are only
overloaded for intmax_t if it's an extended integer type.

        * include/c_global/cinttypes: Update comments that refer to TR1.

Tested x86_64-linux, committed to trunk.
