[PATCH 1/5] scanf.3: clarify that %n supports type modifiers

[Alejandro Colomar <alx.manpages@gmail.com>]

From: Alyssa Ross <hi@alyssa.is>

My initial reading of this was that type modifiers were probably not
supported.  But they are, and this is actually documented further up,
in the type modifiers documentation.  But to make it clearer, let's
copy the language that printf(3) has in its %n section.
