manual: Remove incorrect claim that qsort() can be stabilized
Under certain conditions on the size of the array and its items, qsort() may fall back to an in-place quicksort if it cannot allocate memory for a temporary array with malloc(). This algorithm is not a stable sort even if the comparison function is written in the described manner. Fixes #10672. Signed-off-by: Anders Kaseorg <andersk@mit.edu>
