library: some tweaks to 2 file read functions, 3rd gen

Browse Source 
Ever since their introduction, plus continuing through
several evolutions, both the meminfo and vmstat 'read'
functions employed a 'do while' loop for /proc access.

However, that loop construct was wrong since identical
tests were already done (twice!) within each loop body
itself, then accompanied by its own 'break' statement.

So, we will now transform them both into forever loops
which will help us to emphasize such break statements.

[ plus, let's return an error should nothing be read ]

[ lastly, eliminate 1 erroneous PROCPS_EXPORT prefix ]
