Rich Felker ee18e584bf printf core: replace if(0) blocks around switch cases with explicit gotos
this is purely a readability change, not a functional one. all of the
integer format cases use a common tail for handling precision logic
after the string representation of the number has been generated. the
code as I originally wrote it was overly clever in the aim of making a
point that the flow could be done without goto, and jumped over
intervening cases by wrapping them in if (0) { }, with the case labels
for each inside the conditional block scope.

this has been a perpetual source of complaints about the readability
and comprehensibility of the file, so I am now changing it to
explicitly jump to the tail logic with goto statements.

    musl libc

musl, pronounced like the word "mussel", is an MIT-licensed
implementation of the standard C library targetting the Linux syscall
API, suitable for use in a wide range of deployment environments. musl
offers efficient static and dynamic linking support, lightweight code
and low runtime overhead, strong fail-safe guarantees under correct
usage, and correctness in the sense of standards conformance and
safety. musl is built on the principle that these goals are best
achieved through simple code that is easy to understand and maintain.

The 1.1 release series for musl features coverage for all interfaces
defined in ISO C99 and POSIX 2008 base, along with a number of
non-standardized interfaces for compatibility with Linux, BSD, and
glibc functionality.

For basic installation instructions, see the included INSTALL file.
Information on full musl-targeted compiler toolchains, system
bootstrapping, and Linux distributions built on musl can be found on
the project website:
