On the page you linked, you can see that `ctype.h` reserves all prefixes of `is[a-z]` and `to[a-z]`, and `string.h` reserves `str[a-z]`. These come from the C standard (in C99, it's 7.26 "Future Library Directions"), though I don't think they use the word "reserved" there.
The commit messages that add them to banned.h discuss alternatives, though most of the explanations are Git-specific and assume you'll look elsewhere to figure out how to actually use those alternatives.
I see a lot of comments to the effect of "shouldn't XYZ also be banned". The answer is that we're not necessarily trying to be exhaustive. The point is to flag common errors before we even hit review, so we add new functions mostly when somebody tries to misuse them. I don't recall anybody trying to abuse longjmp() in Git's codebase yet (and no, that's not a challenge).
