[PATCH rcu 2/5] tools/nolibc/stdio: Add format attribute to enable printf warnings

[Paul E. McKenney]

From: Alviro Iskandar Setiawan <alviro.iskandar@xxxxxxxxxxx>

When we use printf and fprintf functions from the nolibc, we don't
get any warning from the compiler if we have the wrong arguments.
For example, the following calls will compile silently:
```
  printf("%s %s\n", "aaa");
  fprintf(stdout, "%s %s\n", "xxx", 1);
```
(Note the wrong arguments).

Those calls are undefined behavior. The compiler can help us warn
about the above mistakes by adding a `printf` format attribute to
those functions declaration. This patch adds it, and now it yields
these warnings for those mistakes:
```
  warning: format `%s` expects a matching `char *` argument [-Wformat=]
  warning: format `%s` expects argument of type `char *`, but argument 4 has type `int` [-Wformat=]
```
