printf: emit more contiguous text to improve escape sequences
Users have a reasonable expectation that printf should be able
to construct ANSI escape sequences and have them take effect.
This expectation isn't met because printf tends to output one
character at a time whereas busybox-w32 needs escape sequences
to be output contiguously
Force printf to output contiguous text in two cases:
- literal text in the format string
- string arguments output using the '%b' format specifier
(See GitHub issue #189.)
