  1. printf: remove unused argument name from help

    printf --help is currently listing three usage forms:
    
    ```
    Usage: coreutils printf FORMATSTRING [ARGUMENT]...
           coreutils printf FORMAT [ARGUMENT]...
           coreutils printf OPTION
    ```
    
    But there are only two usage forms, since there is no difference
    between "FORMAT" and "FORMATSTRING".
    
    Remove references to "FORMATSTRING", and use "FORMAT" in all places
    where "FORMATSTRING" appeared, since other implementations of
    `printf` use the argument name "FORMAT".
