This macro should help the following patch be a little
less prolix. Besides, this private header could/should
do just a little more to help with our newlib efforts.

The 'procps.h' header includes all other headers which
contain exported (public) functions, while this header
has some (private) macros required for implementation.
If we mix the two, by including procps.h in this file,
we'll lose all hope of the compiler catching the kinds
of errors corrected in an immediately preceding patch.

The includes used to define a lot of things a library include
should not. It was also a bit messy what was exposed in the library
and what was not.
get_pid_digits -> procps_pid_length and exported correctly
MALLOC attribute move into relevant .c files
NORETURN attribute moved to relevant .c, not used in library
PURE attribute removed, it wasn't used
KLONG/KLF/STRTOUKL were fixed for long, so now just use long
HIDDEN attribute removed. It was for 3 functions. The PROCPS_EXPORT
seems to do the same (opposite) thing.
likely/unlikely removed from most places, its highly debateable
this does anything useful as CPUs have gotten smarter about branches.
Re-arranged the includes, ALL external programs should just #include
<proc/procps.h> then proc/procps.h includes headers for files that
have exported functions. procps.h and the headers it includes should
not use items that are not exportable (e.g. hidden functions or
macros) they go in procps-private.h
Added function procps_linux_version() which used to be an
exported integer instead. Also changed the method of obtaining
the linux version (more correctly the os release) to use a specific
procfs entry. This works for both Linux and FreeBSD.
