This commit represents an experiment in nls help text support.
The word --help itself been made translatable along with the
help section names and their abbreviations. Thus, the work of
the translators will ultimately alter program run-time behavior.
Perhaps someday all "long" options can behave in a similar way
which could offer a considerable benefit to other languages.
Instead of translationg just option descriptions, the long
forms of those options could also be transalated.
This commit also:
. includes the section abbreviations in --help output
. isolates all --help support in the ps/help.c module
. provides (hopefully) meaningful Translator guidance
. removes --help support from the ps/common.h header
. removes --help support from the ps/parser.c module
. eliminates tabs in line with the style of other ps modules
. eliminates the need for the include/c.h header file
This commit is prmarily concerned with elimnating deugging only
code from the nls template file.
It also eliminates any remaing useless trailing whitespace.
This patch mostly reorganizes include files and eliminates
some useless trailing whitespace.
It also adopts the standard procps-ng unconditional approach
to nls initialization.
These xalloc functions are a private function for the library. If using
programs need them, then they should make their own error reporting or
use a common file.
Slackware seems to have this patch, while it is not in use(?) Well,
the upstream procps-ng allows one to disable warnings if that is
wanted. After all having this sort of 'feature' does not cost much,
while lacking it might annoy someone.
A patch from Slackware.

There were numerous ps memory allocation inconsistencies.
Some were checked for failure and others were not.
The program was modified to utilize the library memory
rouines which are consistent in dealing with errors.
(a few changes simply removed trailing whitespace)
