    libc/features.h: Make code match documentation
    
    The documentation states that _GNU_SOURCE enables "all of the above
    plus GNU extensions.". Furthermore the documentation states that
    _DEFAULT_SOURCE would enable POSIX-1.2008 with BSD and SVr4 extensions.
    
    The code did different things though:
    
    * For _GNU_SOURCE it only enabled POSIX.1-2008 but it should have been the
      highest available one, POSIX.1-2024.
    * For _DEFAULT_SOURCE it enabled POSIX.1-2024.
    
    Let's use the highest available POSIX standard possible and fix
    documentation where necessary.
