shared/trivial: add comment about compat macro _NM_CC_SUPPORT_GENERIC w.r.t. C11
C11 provides _Generic(). Until now we used it when the compiler supports
it (in extended --std=gnu99 mode). In practice, now that we require C11
it should always be present.
We will drop compatibility code in the future. For now, just add a comment
and keep it. The reason is, that "shared/nm-utils/nm-macros-internal.h"
may be used by VPN plugins or applet, which may or may not yet bump to
C11. Keeping it for now, allows for an easier update.
