let's keep printf, puts, and scanf

[Mike Miller]

Kai,

Is there any particular reason you decided to deprecate printf, puts,
and scanf [1]? I think these are very useful Octave extensions that a
lot of users would miss, I know I will.

I think making them m-file wrappers around fprintf, fscanf, and fputs is
fine, but not marking them as deprecated.

Also the wrappers you created in scripts/deprecated do not work, they
are not using varargin correctly, see usage.m for an example.
