Multiple scanf()s use the GNU-permitted %Lu. This is not supported in
other libraries and isn't to the POSIX specification. The L modifier
is only used for floats in POSIX.
Replacing %Lu with %llu is the same for GNU libc (scanf(3) says as much)
but means other libraries will work fine.

Beginning with linux-4.5, the following new fields are
being added under that /proc/<pid>/status pseudo file:
. RssAnon - size of resident anonymous memory
. RssFile - size of resident file mappings
. RssShmem - size of resident shared memory
This patch just represents the initial library and top
support, sharing a commit message with 2 more patches.
p.s. locked resident memory support was also added but
isn't directly related to the kernel 4.5 enhancements.

When reference counts were added to some string fields
the 3 true string vector fields were not duplicated as
were those other fields. Instead they were supposed to
disallow a duplicate stack reference beyond the first.
However, the actual implementation gave NULL for every
true vector field whenever such items were duplicated.
More importantly, such true string vector fields never
considered references to the shared proc_t source root
which would have forced the conversion of such vectors
into a single string form via the '_CVT' library flag.
So this commit restores the intended outcome with true
string vectors. There's only 1 valid reference allowed
and duplicates and converted fields will yield a NULL.

Ok, here is that rather major internal redesign hinted
at in the three previous commits. Its need was quickly
revealed after adapting top then attempting to display
newly added 'CGNAME' fields and an existing 'CGROUPS'.
That very quickly generated a SEGV. And the reason was
just as quickly recognized. Both fields relied on that
proc_t.cgroup member yet whichever result structure is
first in a stack is the one which assumes ownership of
of the vectored sting by resetting its cgroup to NULL.
So this commit introduces reference counting for a few
of the fields in the proc_t. Specifically there are 17
entries in the Item_table dealing with strings/vectors
where ownership is transferred to newlib. Now whenever
such fields are represented more than once in a stack,
the strings will be duplicated instead of transferred.
In this way we can generally remain optimized avoiding
string copies, yet still accommodate them when needed.
There's an exception to this scheme: those true string
vectors (CGROUP_V, CMDLINE_V and ENVIRON_V). When such
fields are duplicated in a stack the result structures
beyond the first will be set to NULL, which the caller
will (should) already be equipped to deal with anyway.

Gosh, just because nobody uses some newlib provision I
guess, since it is being offered, it ought to actually
be tested at some point. Well, that point just arrived
and guess what? A surprise: some bugs were discovered.
The procps_pids_select function established a for loop
wherein readproc is called until the passed 'maxthese'
limit. Unfortunately this was incorrect for 2 reasons:
1. For PROCPS_FILL_PID results are limited by what the
oldlib finds, having established the pid list at open.
Total found already cannot exceed a passed 'maxthese';
2. With PROCPS_FILL_UID, returned results could exceed
a 'maxthese' thus making the for loop incorrect again.
[ plus yours truly neglected to forward the required ]
[ UIDs total to our old library, another oops biggie ]
In summary: the loop should have been forever, exiting
only when all those identified procs had been located.
So, while addressing those bugs, I've consolidated all
the retrieval code (initialize, iterate, summarize) in
a single helper function which will now serve both the
procps_pids_reap and select functions. And as a result
those guys were reduced to quite trivial housekeeping.
This patch, hopefully, completes the normalization for
reap/select (fill), which began with references shown.

This patch contains the following minor modifications:
. When assigning to boot_seconds from a double, a cast
to 'unsigned long' was employed that in reality should
have been 'unsigned long long'. But, on second thought
it's probably best if the compiler makes the decision.
. Results for ID_TGID do not require an 'f_status' flg
since both tid and tgid will be available by virtue of
the 'simple_nextpid' function normal operations. Thus,
that flag has been removed from the <pids> Item_table.
. When the pids_stacks structure was eliminated with a
change to the alloc/dealloc functions in the reference
below, several casts became redundant and are removed.

After simplifying that select/fill interface, there is
no longer a need for public 'alloc' & 'dealloc' stacks
functions. There is now only one instance of stacks as
an input parameter found in procps_pids_stacks_sort().
But sorting 'empty' stacks serves no possible purpose.
So this commit retains both functions, since they will
still be needed, but designates them private (static).
Additionally, with their demise we will eliminate that
pids_stacks structure from the header file, internally
using what always was the true 'stacks_extent' struct.

Shoot, here's yet another bow to ps needs. But it's ok
because it makes a lot of sense. Rather than force all

As an aside this need arose during ps testing when the
sorts were using TIME_START or TICS_ALL. That was just
fine for almost every need except 'etime' plus 'time'.
That 'etime' was sorting the opposite of what's wanted
when using TIME_START (of course) while 'time' yielded
some weird ordering because TICS_ALL was too granular.

The presence of that PROCPS_PIDS_noop may yet see some
use in the future with its 'no alter' library promise.
However, when top used that item to reflect the forest
view nesting level, the unchanging nature of that item
became more of an inconvenience than benefit. For each
refresh top was forced to loop through all the stacks,
resetting that PROCPS_PIDS_noop result struct to zero.
So this commit will now offer users a choice between a
new re-initialized item (PROCPS_PIDS_extra) & the noop
invariant. Since the library already resets all those
result structures, top will now utilize it at no cost.

Functions related to namespaces were half-in half-out of the
procps library and didn't fit the standard naming scheme.
While struct { long ns[x]} is a bit clunky, its the only way
to "lock in" x. The alternative is to use ns_* variables.
This work was needed before pgrep could be converted.
I was surprised to find that ol' gcc silently converts
a single (different) enum into an address where one or
more enums were expected to be dereferenced. Of course
this was just yet another way to generate an old SEGV.

This commit is the culmination of efforts to modernize
the library api. It should be treated as a first blush
attempt, especially since I have absolutely no library
design experience. But I did have a very strong desire
to lessen the new library's impact on the top program.
Under this new api, a 'stack' is the equivalent of the
old proc_t. It can be seen as a variable length record
whose contents & order is under complete user control.
That initial stack/record configuration is established
at procps_pids_new() time and will probably serve most
program needs. But, a dynamic & demanding program like
top will later change a stack via procps_pids_reset().
For programs like top & ps, procps_pids_reap() will be
the function that will retrieve all tasks and threads.
Any program that needs to filter / select only certain
processes or users have available other functions that
can be used: procps_pids_stacks_alloc, fill & dealloc.
This implementation attempts to maximize that existing
proven libprocps code base. As we gain more experience
such actual code can be migrated into the pids.c file.

. former user and group name arrays also became char *

those names. so, copying to an array never made sense.
. the concept of QUICK_THREADS used to avoid duplicate
overhead for string data was disabled. it could not be

was disable in the header. it was probably a poor idea

In addition to that text shown below the line which is
common to several commit messages, this patch contains
several minor changes with lessor impact upon the API:
. Standard copyright boilerplate was added in .c file.
. The #include header files are ordered alphabetically
now, with all those <sys/??> types separately grouped.
. The header file follows the conventions of indenting
(by 4 spaces) those parameters too lengthy for 1 line.
------------------------------------------------------
. The former 'chains' have now become 'stacks' without
the 'next' pointer in each result struct. The pointers
initially seemed to offer some flexibility with memory
allocations and benefits for the library access logic.
However, user access was always via displacement and a
a statically allocated chain was cumbersome to define.
. An enumerator ending in '_noop' will no longer serve
as a fencepost delimiter. Rather, it has become a much
more important and flexible user oriented tool. Adding
one or more such 'items' in any items list passed into
the library becomes the means of extending the 'stack'
to also include user (not just library) data. Any such
data is guaranteed to never be altered by the library.
. Anticipating PID support, where many different types
must be represented in a result structure, we'll adopt
a common naming standard. And, while not every results
structure currently needs to reflect disparate types a
union will be employed so the same dot qualifier ('.')
can be used consistently when accessing all such data.
