Log Message:
-----------
[S32]: Remove 'm' (complex) modifier from sprintf, in hopes of a
more unified approach to formatted printing for Perl 6 (e.g.,
what about formatting Rats?).
The idea here is to take a minimalist approach to 'sprintf' --
supplying the conversions that people are familiar with from
other languages and libraries, but be cautious about layering
on new "ad-hoc"-ish options until we have a better plan for
handling them all. This is addressed further in
https://github.com/perl6/specs/issues/13 .
