[libstdc++,doc] Strip links to ANSI (web shop)

First of all, I am not sure whether this is really a FAQ (and even
if so, why we duplicate text in the FAQ and the manual).

But referring to ANSI's webshop (and even ANSI) via a link feels a
little over the edge, doesn't it?

I have _not_ applied this yet.  What do you think?  Any objections?
