FreeBSD has case-insensitive matching of processes in pgrep and
pkill, which can be super-useful. This patch uncomments and
documents the code needed to make this work.

pgrep got updated due to the confusion of the f,l and a flags.
While the newer behaviour is far better but it is no longer following
the ancient Solaris standards, so that got removed.

A PID should be specified with --ns:
$ pgrep --ns 12345
which will only match the processes which belong to to the same 6
namespaces. It is also possible to specify which namespaces to test:
$ pgrep --ns 12345 --nslist mnt,net,ipc
which will match processes that belong to the same mount, network and
IPC namespaces as PID 12345.

The entire tree's polluted with inappropriate trailing
whitespace. This commit rids our environment of all of
those useless keystrokes. Unfortunately, it sure ain't
a permanent solution and requires every contributor to
instruct their editor(s) to prevent or eliminate them.
Plus it's strongly recommended we all insert something
like what's shown below to our '.gitconfig' file so as
to provide at least some warnings when we try to apply
any patches (git am) that do contain the #@!%& things!

Possibly by a side-effect but pkill -c option used to work which would
print the number of killed processes. This small change restores this
functionality.

pgrep used delimiter and delimeter, the correct spelling is delimiter.
Thanks to Alexander Kobel for the heads-up.

Long option '--list-name' is fixed to be bold, and '-n, --newest'
are marked to new paragraph.

All warnings where about unnecessary quoting. The scriptlet
below will tell what was wrong.
for I in ./top/top.1 ./ps/ps.1 ./*.[0-9]; do
echo "== $I warnings =="
man --warnings=all $I > /dev/null
done
This should probably be turned to 'make check' script.

The short option for --inverse is disabled for pkill, but long option
works just in case someone will find that piece of functionality usable.

The option -v does not make much sense in pkill context.
