Document .St -isoC-2023 .

While here, change the wording from "major version" to "edition"
because that's how the C standards call themselves and because
not every edition is a major version in the normal sense of the
word.

In particular, it is not an oversight that there is no macro argument
for edition 4 = C17 precisely because that is *not* a major version
but merely a minor bugfix update of C11 not adding any new features.

OK jmc@
