Synopsis: Format %lf should be changed to %f in printf family of calls in runtime

Description
In C89, format specifier using format specifier "%lf" to printf/fprintf/sprintf
results in undefined behavior.  In C99, the "l" has no effect.  So format
specifiers "%lf" should be changed to "%f" in all printf family calls in
Src/C directory tree.  Note that "%lf" is meaningful in scanf family calls
and its uses in these calls in the runtime are correct.
