Log Message:
PR standards/53563

POSIX requires that signed numbers (strings preceded by '+' or '-')
be allowed as inputs to all of the integer format conversions, including
those which treat the data as unsigned.

Hence we do not need a variant function whose only difference from its
companion is to reject strings starting with '-' - instead we use
the primary function (getintmax()) for everything and remove getuintmax().

Minor update to the man page to indicate that the arg to all of the
integer conversions (diouxX) must be an integer constant (with an
optional sign) and to make it blatantly clear that %o is octal and
%u is unsigned decimal (for some reason those weren't explicitly stated
unlike d i x and X).  Delete "respectively", it is not needed (and does
not really apply).
