charmap.5: remove accidental ISO C compliance reference

[Marko Myllynen]

Hi,

a horrible braino slipped to charmap(5) introduction, it's probably best just to remove it (alternatively something could be stated about locales and charsets but perhas this is not the right place for it).

Subject: [PATCH] charmap.5: remove accidental ISO C compliance reference

glibc refers in locale/programs/charmap.c to ISO C 99 section 7.17.(2)
and ISO C 99 section 5.2.1.(3) that if a character map is not ASCII
compatible then the locale using it is not ISO C compliant. This does
not state anything about the character set itself.
