[pushed] objdump: fix print formatters for 64-bit integers

David Faust has committed a change to objdump that corrects the formatting of 64-bit integer values when displaying BTF (Basic Type Format) information. The previous implementation used non-portable formatting directives that caused issues on certain targets. This fix ensures that portable print formatters are used, improving compatibility and correctness across different platforms.
