[issue19995] %c, %o, %x, %X accept non-integer values instead of raising an exception

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray added the comment:

Given that even the stdlib used it, there is no question in my mind that a deprecation period is required.  We don't just arbitrarily break peoples code on purpose, we give them at least a release in which to fix it first.
