Fix conversion errors due to precision issues in function unitConvert
For example: unitConvert(98720620) will return 98720624, not 98720620.
Because we do (unsigned long)(float)98720620 in function unitConvert
and this is wrong! We should do (unsigned long)(double)98720620 here.

This change is largely based upon Justin's patch, I just moved the
reset_ansi() parts out otherwise you get strange colour reset
behaviours.
Original patch message:
I used the --no-linewrap (-w) option for the first time today, watching
some wide output that didn't quite fit in my tmux pane. Quickly I
noticed a problem: while --no-linewrap did indeed eliminate the
spillover of lines too long for the terminal "window" width, it *also*
resulted in a bunch of lines from the program output being hidden
entirely.
After some fiddling around, the exact problematic behavior appears to be
as follows:
1. Lines which would have wrapped (more than $COLUMNS chars long) are
handled correctly.
2. Lines which would *not* have wrapped (shorter than $COLUMNS) are
printed; but then the next line is *not* printed! For long sequences
of non-wrap-length lines, you get an every-other-line-is-visible
sort of effect.
The logic underlying the problem seems to be this: in the run_command
loop, if the x loop goes all the way to completion (meaning we've
reached the right-side edge of the window area), there's a small block
of code for --no-linewrap whose main purpose is to call find_eol, which
eats input until it hits a newline (or EOF). Clearly this is intended to
be done for lines that are too long, so that the excess characters are
discarded and the input pointer is ready to go for the subsequent line.
However, this code isn't in any way conditional on the value of eolseen!
Short/wouldn't-wrap lines will have encountered a newline character
before exhausting the entire x loop, and therefore eolseen will be true.
Long/would-wrap lines will not have encountered a newline when the x
loop is exhausted, and so eolseen will be false.
Nevertheless, find_eol is called in *both* cases. For long lines, it
does what it's meant to do. For short lines, *the newline has already
been encountered and dealt with*, and so the actual effect of find_eol
is to eat the entirety of the next line, all the way through to its
newline, such that it isn't printed at all.

If you have the watched program doing some other thing every time its
run and you resize the window, you might get unexpected results. The
-r option lets you run only when the interval has expired.

In production we've had several incidents over the years where a process
has a signal handler registered for SIGHUP or one of the SIGUSR signals
which can be used to signal a request to reload configs, rotate log
files, and the like. While this may seem harmless enough, what we've
seen happen repeatedly is something like the following:
1. A process is using SIGHUP/SIGUSR[12] to request some
application-handled state change -- reloading configs, rotating a log
file, etc;
2. This kind of request is deprecated and removed, so the signal handler
is removed. However, a site where the signal might be sent from is
missed (often logrotate or a service manager);
3. Because the default disposition of these signals is terminal, sooner
or later these applications are going to be sent SIGHUP or similar
and end up unexpectedly killed.
I know for a fact that we're not the only organisation experiencing
this: in general, signal use is pretty tricky to reason about and safely
remove because of the fairly aggressive SIG_DFL behaviour for some
common signals, especially for SIGHUP which has a particularly ambiguous
meaning. Especially in a large, highly interconnected codebase,
reasoning about signal interactions between system configuration and
applications can be highly complex, and it's inevitable that on occasion
a callsite will be missed.
In some cases the right call to avoid this will be to migrate services
towards other forms of IPC for this purpose, but inevitably there will
be some services which must continue using signals, so we need a safe
way to support them.
This patch adds support for the -H/--require-handler flag, which matches
on processes with a userspace handler present for the signal being sent.
With this flag we can enforce that all SIGHUP reload cases and SIGUSR
equivalents use --require-handler. This effectively mitigates the case
we've seen time and time again where SIGHUP is used to rotate log files
or reload configs, but the sending site is mistakenly left present after
the removal of signal handler, resulting in unintended termination of
the process.

When the p/e-cores support (via the '5' key) was added
in the patch referenced below, I intentionally omitted
that key from the top primary help screen. This seemed
appropriate since it only applied to select Intel cpus
and, besides, that screen was getting kind of crowded.
[ it remains an objective to fit on a 80x24 terminal ]
Upon reflection, I found a way to squeeze it into that
help screen and have decided to included it. Hopefully
its presence will encourage use of top's new provision
on any Intel platforms that distinguish between cores.

In the commits referenced below special code was added
to make the bottom window sticky and fix the bug after
'Cap_nl_clreos' was traded for the 'Cap_clr_eol' loop.
However, there's always major overhead associated with
interacting with a terminal. So we'll only abandon the
single 'Cap_nl_clreos' putp in favor of repeated calls
with 'Cap_clr_eol' when a bottom window isn't present.

The man page said it cannot show changes to comm, such as when you
use prctl(). In fact, ps can see this. The args field may not change
because its due to the path of the executable but comm can.
The field comm no longer shows defunct for zombie processes, use the
state field for this as it could be obscured if not the last
column anyhow.

Put the man-po pot file under version control like its po/*.pot sibling.
Makefile now auto-matically generates the list of man pages as they are
in a single directory. There were some missing!
pot file target is dependent on the untranslated man pages
When downloading from translation project, run po4a to sync the new

Just as our library was made responsive to a potential
missing 'core id', the top program should also change.
That's because he has his own PRETENDECORE #define and
if that was activated on a platform without 'core id',
the 'CpP' notations would have otherwise been omitted.

In that commit referenced below, I removed the command
line help text from any translation so the TP wouldn't
delay our 4.0.1 release any further. In looking to the
future, when we might be able to reverse that, I found
gettext tools blocking use of the compile conditional.
They are too primitive for the original approach so we
must modify that exclusion mechanism hack accordingly.
____________________________excerpted program comments
The provision excluding some strings is intended to be
used very sparingly. It exists in case we collide with
some translation project person in a position to delay
a future release over his or her personal preferences.
If it's ever enabled, it will produce a fatal compiler
error as our only option since those gettext tools are
far too primitive to be influenced with a conditional.
They always ignore a '_X()' macro no matter its state.
