[PATCH v5 next 06/17] tools/nolibc/printf: Simplify __nolibc_printf()

[david.laight.linux@gmail.com]

From: David Laight <david.laight.linux@gmail.com>

Move the check for the length modifiers into the format processing
between the field width and conversion specifier.
This lets the loop be simplified and a 'fast scan' for a format start
used.

If an error is detected (eg an invalid conversion specifier) then
copy the invalid format to the output buffer.

Reduces code size by about 10% on x86-64.

Some versions of gcc bloat this version by generating a jump table.
All goes away in the later patches.
