6e1715d9eb top: fix additional SEGVs if no tasks were displayable
This patch is an outgrowth of that commit shown below.

Many additional potential segmentation faults might be
encountered if interactive commands are opened up to a
user when a '-p' switch has a single non-existent pid.

[ always the 'k', 'L', 'r', 'Y' keys & maybe 'v' too ]

So, this patch will restrict such a loser (oops, user)
to a reduced subset of normal commands until he/she/it
quits then restarts top with something to be displayed
or issues the '=' command overriding that '-p' switch.

The previous PRETEND8CPUS #define was recently changed

6db0d5eab6 top: reduce minimum terminal width with 2 abreast mode
For the original implementation of the '4' toggle, the
minimum width was set at 165 columns. This was done to
avoid truncations when detailed cpu statistics (versus
graphs) were being displayed. Those can not be scaled.

Upon reflection, it seems more appropriate to give the
user the choice of whether or not to truncate. And, by
reducing that minimum width requirement to 80 columns,
we'll vastly expand potential use of two abreast mode.

[ we'll keep that original as '#define TOG4_NOTRUNC' ]

The patch also updates the man document appropriately.
Along the way, we will trade the potentially confusing
word 'adjacent' for the more natural 'additional' when
detailing the '!' toggle in 4b. Summary-Area-Commands.

5e1e14b019 top: add '!' toggle for combined cpus display, program
When implementing that earlier '4' toggle, in response
to the issue referenced below, I got to thinking about
those environments with massively parallel processors.

Such environments may not benefit from the '4' toggle.

So, I decided to implement a feature that could enable
use of those '1' and/or '4' toggles no matter how many
active processors top may have ultimately encountered.

With the new '!' toggle, adjacent cpus can be combined
to any degree, represented as a single cpu group/line.

f7dc5b1728 top: for symmetry with 'E' add 'e' command line switch
Several years after the 'e' & 'E' interactive commands
were introduce to affect memory scaling, an 'E' switch
was added. This was after discovering a dropped Redhat
patch which provided a unique 'M' command line switch.

If only for symmetry it makes sense to offer a similar
command switch ('e') for the Task Area memory scaling.

As was true with 'E', top's help text will show 'e' as
if it were a switch without arguments in order to keep
help text displayed without wrap in an 80x24 terminal.
The man page, however, will show all of the arguments.

5cd29e5093 top: restore configuration file backward compatibility
The Debian bug referenced below has nothing to do with
locales. In fact, top was made locale independent back
in release 3.3.13 (April, 2018). However, that bug did
reveal some misplaced logic which this patch corrects.

Prompted by the Qualys audit, all rcfile field strings
were checked for potential duplicates which could only
have resulted from some user's manual/malicious edits.

Unfortunately, that code was executed before top had a
chance to enforce the proper/maximum string length (in
the event an extremely old rcfile had just been read).
This created some potential string overrun references.

In top's original 3.3.15 implementation, the potential
overrun extended for 15 characters. That is the number
of field characters added with 3.3.9 (December, 2013).
But, since strchr() was used, no error exit was taken.

In the revised 3.3.16 implementation, the strchr() was
replaced with '&w->rc.fieldscur[n]'. This held overrun
to a single position while producing an error message.

So, this commit just moves that logic to a point where
fieldscur is guaranteed to be longer than EU_MAXPFLGS.

00028aa237 top: whack insidious bug surrounding auto-sized fields
This commit duplicates a change to that newlib branch.
However, it should be noted that such a change was not
really necessary under this master branch since proc_t
data remains valid much longer. It is being duplicated
here as documentation only. Below is the original msg.

------------------------------------------------------
This patch will eliminate a bug which is unique to our
newlib branch. It's extremely rare and only happens if
a search ('L'/'&') is initiated during the period when
fields are currently being auto-sized (AUTOX_MODE on).

This bug surfaces as either all zero results for tasks
displayed or a segmentation fault, depending upon what
fields were activated. It is caused by the timing of a
call to the <pids> 'reset' function. When called after
a task refresh, but before do_key(), this bug appears.

So this patch just ensures that 'reset' will be called
after do_key() & before the tasks have been refreshed.

e7aa90a866 top: attempt to provide missing xterm vim keys support
A recent issue (and merge request) reminded me of gaps
in top's alternate 'vim' navigation keys support. Some
xterm emulators do not pass the customary strings when
keys were used with the <Ctrl> and/or <Alt> modifiers.

While it was a known problem, this issue/merge request
prompted research into the root cause. As it turns out
the problem is traceable to an X resource known by the
name 'eightBitInput'. When 'true' (the default), a key
pressed in combination with <Alt> will not be preceded
by the <Esc> character. Rather, a single character was
presented (modified via an 'eightBitMeta' X resource).

The following approaches would eliminate this problem:

. start xterm thus: xterm -xrm '*eightBitInput: false'

. use: ~/.Xresources with 'Xterm*eightBitInput: false'

. build xterm with 'configure --enable-meta-sends-esc'
( apparently used for CentOS, Fedora, openSUSE, etc. )

. enable xterm's menu via 'configure --enable-toolbar'
( so the user can set the 'Meta Sends Escape' option )

Of course, none of the above steps is desirable from a
user's perspective. So, this patch will add additional
entries to the iokey function's tinfo_tab to represent
strings passed when the <Alt> key does not send <Esc>.

[ hopefully they'll be the same across all platforms ]

Lastly, this patch will also eliminate those redundant
<Atl> + '\', '/', '<' & '>' provisions, which now seem
like overkill and suffer from that same 'eightBitMeta'
xterm problem. And we might as well say goodbye to the
4 '<Alt> + arrow key' table entries (which do not seem
to currently work with any emulator which I can find).

[ what in the world was I thinking way back in 2011? ]

893793a8c4 top: improve logic surrounding 'smp_num_cpus' variable
I thank Guido Jäkel for raising the issue cited in the
merge request referenced below. While restoring 1 line
of code would produce the desired results, it does not
address the root cause of that problem he experienced.

The variable 'smp_num_cpus' was set by libprocps via a
sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN) call. It was supposed to
represent total number of processors currently online.
It also served as the position in the Cpu_tics[] array
where the /proc/stat line #1 (cpu summary) was stored.

The variable 'Cpu_faux_tot' was valued by top based on
total individual cpus parsed from the /proc/stat file.
It serves as a fence post for Cpu_tics[] array access.

The problem Guido experienced results from a disparity
between those 2 variables, plus one instance where the
wrong variable was used in the summary_show() routine.

. Here is the real culprit, the actual incorrect code:
. summary_hlp(&Cpu_tics[Cpu_faux_tot], N_txt(WORD_a...

Which always should have been represented in this way:
. summary_hlp(&Cpu_tics[smp_num_cpus], N_txt(WORD_a...

------------------------------------------------------
The above 'disparity' might arise in any system when a
cpu is taken offline since there's a 3 second delay in
cpu and memory refreshes in an effort to reduce costs.
Usually this particular condition will be short lived.

However, there is a more persistent problem under lxc.

If a host cpu is taken offline and then brought online
again, within the container sysconf returns the proper
number of online processors. But, /proc/stat does not!
Sadly, I've yet to find a way to coax a container into
refreshing its /proc/stat, short of reboting the host.

[ might that represent a potential bug in lxc logic? ]

In a running top, if the user employed 'other filters'

b3b7a35050 top: a tweak to the forest view collapsed code (again)

Recently, yet another efficiency was added wherein the
continuing scan for a targeted pid was terminated when
a match was found. But, one more inefficiency existed.

When a task which was subject to collapse under forest
view mode has disappeared (ended), repeatedly scanning
for such a pid with each iteration makes little sense.

So this commit will negate such targeted pids and thus
avoid scanning every current task looking for a match.
Then, if 'v' is ever stuck at some point in the future
there will be a chance to empty that Hide_pid[] array.

[ hopefully this will be a final tweak of the forest ]
[ view collapse stuff, but cross your fingers anyway ]

2b82cbfc2a top: the '#define PRETEND2_5_X' was found to be broken
Our newlib branch has already dropped support for such
old kernels. However, the master branch still supports
them. So this patch will correct a broken #define that
is used to influence the top Summary Area information.

5e1c339bef top: speed up the collapsed children forest view logic
In forest view mode, once a collapsible parent process
and all of its children (if any) have been identified,
there is no longer a need to scan the remaining tasks.

So this patch will just force a new scan for any other
'Hide_pid' entries which might remain to be identified
after a targeted parent has been completely processed.

f635d8a369 top: existing 'Inspect' pipe feature now more flexible
Currently, it isn't possible to establish an 'Inspect'
pipe that relies on SIGINT to end. That's because this
signal will also end the parent process (top) as well.

So this patch will temporarily ignore that signal when
processing any 'Inspect' pipe, allowing one like this:

. pipe ^I Trace Calls ^I /usr/bin/strace -r -p %d 2>&1

1dd11af4c1 top: avoid unrecognized 'Inspect' entries memory leaks
Upon startup there exists the potential for some minor
memory leakage should some rcfile 'Inspect' entries be
invalid. By delaying any malloc/strdup until after the
entries are completely validated we will prevent that.
