Update POSIX reference to the 2008 version and correct the list of
conversion specifications that are extensions; issues reported by Andras Farkas <deepbluemistake at gmail dot com> on misc@. While here, note that alternative conversion modifiers have no effect and that flags and field width specifications are not supported.
