kstrto*: do not describe simple_strto*() as obsolete/replaced
The documentation of the kstrto*() functions describes kstrto*() as "replacements" of the "obsolete" simple_strto*() functions. Both of these terms are inaccurate: they're not replacements because they have different behaviour, and the simple_strto*() are not obsolete because there are cases where they have benefits over kstrto*(). Remove usage of the terms "replacement" and "obsolete" in reference to simple_strto*(), and instead use the term "preferred over".
