Addresses GB 9

In 29.13 [c.files] the current C++ standard claims that `<cstdio>` defines a function called "gets" but it has no declaration or semantics, because it was removed from C11, having been deprecated since C99. We should remove it for C++14.

Will resolve with the wording in the NB comment.
