ce95dd53eb Add -c count option to pkill
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.

Flag -f doesn't modify output anymore.

There is a new flag -a to show full command line processes.

47100a8125 docs: fix manual page warnings
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.

96ba57b568 docs: inform about pkill and --inverse option
The short option for --inverse is disabled for pkill, but long option
works just in case someone will find that piece of functionality usable.
