strconv: clarify "g" and "G" precision in the docs

Browse Source 
Fix the wording in "strconv" and "fmt" to make explicit
that the "g" and "G" formats remove trailing zeroes.

Fixes #25082

For floating-point values, width sets the minimum width of the field and
precision sets the number of places after the decimal, if appropriate,
except that for %g/%G precision sets the total number of significant
digits. For example, given 12.345 the format %6.3f prints 12.345 while
%.3g prints 12.3. The default precision for %e, %f and %#g is 6; for %g it
is the smallest number of digits necessary to identify the value uniquely.

For complex numbers, the width and precision apply to the two
components independently and the result is parenthesized, so %f applied
