Speed up (format "%s" STRING) and the like

Although the Lisp manual said that ‘format’ returns a
newly-allocated string, this was not true for a few cases like
(format "%s" ""), and fixing the documentation to allow reuse of
arguments lets us improve performance in common cases like
(format "foo") and (format "%s" "foo") (Bug#28625).
* doc/lispref/strings.texi (Formatting Strings):
* etc/NEWS:
Say that the result of ‘format’ might not be newly allocated.
* src/callint.c (Fcall_interactively):
* src/dbusbind.c (XD_OBJECT_TO_STRING):
* src/editfns.c (Fmessage, Fmessage_box):
* src/xdisp.c (vadd_to_log, Ftrace_to_stderr):
Just use Fformat or Fformat_message, as that’s simpler and no
longer makes unnecessary copies.
* src/editfns.c (styled_format): Remove last argument, as it
is no longer needed: all callers now want it to behave as if it
were true.  All remaining callers changed.  Make this function
static again.  Simplify the function now that we no longer
need to worry about whether the optimization is allowed.
