manual: Remove incorrect claim that qsort() can be stabilized
Under certain conditions on the size of the array and its items,
qsort() may fall back to an in-place quicksort if it cannot allocate
memory for a temporary array with malloc(). This algorithm is not a
stable sort even if the comparison function is written in the
described manner.
Fixes #10672.
