top: enable user filtering via inclusion and exclusion

Browse Source 
With this commit top can now display users which match
a user id/name or just those users which do not match.

The distinction is based on the presence or absence of
a leading exclamation point '!' (C negation operator).

(everything is perfectly justified plus right margins)
(are completely filled, but of course it must be luck)
