* MSVC++ doesn't include <inttypes.h>, even in versions shipping <stdint.h>, so
* we have to reimplement it there. Note: <inttypes.h> #includes <stdint.h>.
*
* Note that this header DOES NOT implement <inttypes.h>'s scanf macros. MSVC's
* scanf doesn't have sufficient format specifier support to implement them
* (specifically, to implement scanning into an 8-bit location).
*
* http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3036396/scanfd-char-char-as-int-format-string
*
* Moreover, scanf is a footgun: if the input number exceeds the bounds of the
* target type, behavior is undefined (in the compiler sense: that is, this code
* could overwrite your hard drive with zeroes):
*
* uint8_t u;
* sscanf("256", "%" SCNu8, &u); // BAD
*
* This header will sometimes provide SCN* macros, by dint of being implemented
* using <inttypes.h>. But for these reasons, *never* use them!
