doc: _TIME_BITS defaults may change

* NEWS: Don't imply the default will always be 32-bit.
* manual/creature.texi (Feature Test Macros):
Say that _TIME_BITS and _FILE_OFFSET_BITS defaults
may change in future releases.

 * On powerpc64*, glibc can now be compiled without scv support using the
   --disable-scv configure option.
 
-* Add support for 64-bit time_t for ABIs with defaults to 32-bit time_t.
+* Add support for 64-bit time_t for ABIs with defaults currently unchanged.
   This is enabled with the _TIME_BITS preprocessor set to 64 and only
   supported when LFS (_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64) is also enabled.  It is only
   enabled for Linux and the full support requires a minimum version of 5.1.
