Describe remainder as primary and drem as alternative in the manual

In preparation for the documentation of _FloatN and _FloatNx variants of
the remainder function, this patch changes the descriptions of remainder
and drem, so that remainder is described as primary and drem as an
alternative name for the same functionality.

	* manual/arith.texi (Remainder Functions): Describe remainder as
	primary and drem as an alternative name.  Change the comment on
	remainder to ISO, since it is defined in ISO C99.
