Use puts() instead of no-op printf() where applicable
This replaces several printf calls of the following styles:
printf("%s", ...);
printf("some fixed string");
printf("x");
We can use either fputs() or putchar() here to do the same thing
without incurring the overhead of the printf format parser.
The biggest gain here comes when we are calling the print function in a
loop repeatedly; notably when printing local package files.
$ /usr/bin/time ./pacman-before -Ql | md5sum

$ /usr/bin/time ./pacman-after -Ql | md5sum

$ /usr/bin/time ./pacman-before -Qlq | md5sum
0.20user 0.05system 0:00.26elapsed 98%CPU
$ /usr/bin/time ./pacman-after -Qlq | md5sum
0.15user 0.05system 0:00.23elapsed 93%CPU
So '-Ql' shows a 17% improvement while '-Qlq' shows a 13% improvement on
382456 total files.
