Description
per https://github.com/phpstan/phpstan/issues/9072 and https://3v4l.org/SrVYE it seems sprintf supports a %lu modifier.
it is not mentioned at the doc page though
https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.sprintf.php
is it just missing or is this a kind of unsupported feature or similar?

Research direction
Start with the sprintf documentation page and the linked PHPStan issue and 3v4l reproduction. Verify whether %lu is supported PHP behavior or an undocumented modifier, then document the confirmed status on the sprintf page; completion requires a clear resolution rather than only mentioning the specifier.
