[c/en] mostly word clarification and extra descriptions (#4222)
* Adds extra clarity to enum value assignment.

The previous statement shows only 1 way to declare enums, and it happens
that they specify a starting value. I clarify that a starting value is
not necessary and that all enum value could contain user specified
values.

* Added clarity to `includes` section.

specified that angle brackets are for system libraries and not just
standard libs. I also added an example of relative paths in the local
include statements.

* Added more clarity for function prototyping and main return vals.

I cleaned up some formatting; then added some clarity to how function
prototyping works, as well as recommend techniques.

* Fixed the mention of character sizes. they are not always 1 byte

* Added clarity about floating point arithmetic.

The previous comments on floating points made it feel like there was
something broken with doing comparison and arithmetics with floating
point types. I added clarity about how floats are stored in memory and
why they seem to behave strangly when used in arithmetic expressions.

* reworded boolean stuff for better clarity on _Bool type in C99

* Adds not about binary assignment

* Added clarity for value roll over

* Added section on multiple return values.

C doesnt allow returning of multiple values, so i added a section on
returning multiple values through pointers.

* added section break for printing special characters

* fix typo

c8fb84cc91 c: init array with string literals not introduced. (#2369)
* c: fix using pointer before introduced.

* c: init array with string literals not introduced.

To avoid using the concept pointer before it has been introduced,
previously it is changed to array.
But as @geoffliu pointed out,
array initialization using string literals is not introduced either.
So this commit uses neither pointer nor array.
Discussing `i++` and `++i` does not need to involve pointer or array.

* c: use `var = value` instead of `->`.

`->` is typically used for functions.
Thanks, @vendethiel.

b31fda3a8e Edit variable-length array example
The current example seems to be trying to set a size for a char buffer,
use fgets to populate that buffer, and then use strtoul to convert the
char content to an unsigned integer. However, this doesn't work as
intended (in fact, it results in printing "sizeof array = 0"), and so
adapt to a simpler fscanf example. Also remove some ambiguous language
in the example output.
