elisp manual format cross references

I noticed two spots where cross references for the format function
point to the wrong node.

The one in prin1-to-string is outright wrong.  The second at the top
of the String Conversion node reads like format and prin1-to-string
are both in Output Functions (which is not the case).

        * streams.texi (Output Functions), strings.texi (String Conversion):
        Correction to `format' node cross references.

  This function displays a message in the echo area.  The
  argument @var{string} is similar to a C language @code{printf} control
! string.  See @code{format} in @ref{String Conversion}, for the details
  on the conversion specifications.  @code{message} returns the
  constructed string.
