The newlib nano variant is currently enabled by default when
`CONFIG_NEWLIB_LIBC=y` and the selected toolchain-architecture
combination includes the newlib nano variant support, even if
`CONFIG_NEWLIB_LIBC_NANO` is not selected by the user.
When `CONFIG_NEWLIB_LIBC=y`, this results in the newlib nano variant
being selected for some architectures (e.g. ARC, ARM and RISC-V), while
the full variant is selected for the rest of the architectures.
The above behaviour is problematic because there exist functional
differences between the newlib full and nano variants (e.g. C99 format
modifiers such as `hh`, `ll`, `z`, `j` and `t` are not available in the
newlib nano variant), and this effectively leads to different level of
C standard support across different architectures when
`CONFIG_NEWLIB_LIBC=y`.
This commit fixes this problem by making the `CONFIG_NEWLIB_LIBC_NANO`
not `default y` and requiring its user to explicitly set this symbol to
`y` when they want to use the newlib nano variant.

This commit reworks the C++ language support documentation such that:
1. it contains more up-to-date information regarding the available
features.
2. it makes a clear distinction between the Zephyr C++ subsystem and
the C++ standard library and describe the functionalities they
provide.

This commit adds the 'Language Support' sub-category under the
'Developing with Zephyr' category with programming language support-
related documentations.
The contents of the 'C standard library' page have been relocated to
the 'C Language Support' page, and the contents of the 'C++ Support for
Applications' page have been relocated to the 'C++ Language Support'
page.
