(moved the API 29 note to the man page and reworded the commit message
text about the BSDs.)

Hi Elliott,

Unclear to me whether it would be useful to explicitly mention that it's
_not_ available on iOS/macOS and the BSDs, since that's the caveat I
usually give when recommending %m to people.
We can omit that for now, but please not it in the commit message.

Technically this is available on Android from API level 29, if we wanted
to be more specific.
Yep, that might be useful.

Thanks!


Have a lovely day!
