lib/test_printf.c: test precision quirks 

The kernel's printf doesn't follow the standards in a few corner cases
(which are probably mostly irrelevant).  Add tests that document the
current behaviour.

/*
* POSIX and C99 say that a missing precision should be
* treated as a precision of 0. However, the kernel's printf
* implementation treats this case as if the . wasn't
* present. Let's add a test case documenting the current
* behaviour; should anyone ever feel the need to follow the
* standards more closely, this can be revisited.
* POSIX and C99 say that a negative precision (which is only
* possible to pass via a * argument) should be treated as if
* the precision wasn't present, and that if the precision is
* omitted (as in %.s), the precision should be taken to be
* 0. However, the kernel's printf behave exactly opposite,
* treating a negative precision as 0 and treating an omitted
* precision specifier as if no precision was given.
*
* These test cases document the current behaviour; should
* anyone ever feel the need to follow the standards more
* closely, this can be revisited.
