Implement 'printf' utility #57

Closed AtkinsSJ closed 6 months ago

This is by no means complete, but covers most of the POSIX spec: https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/printf.html

Escape sequences (currently the shell handles these wrong, see https://github.com/HeyPuter/phoenix/issues/53 )
%d %i %o %u %x and %X integer formatters
%e %E %f %F %g and %G float formatters
%c and %S string formatters

Still to do:

%a and %A hexadecimal float formatters
%b for formatting a string including escape sequences
Anything beyond the spec that's common and users might expect.
