Use the standard libc declarations.
For protecting the headers for C++ procps used to have its
own defines, this change makes them use the standard libc ones.
getstat() -> procps_stat_*
vminfo() -> procps_vmstat_*
These two components of the library now use the newer version of
the API with less exposed global variables. The old methods are
there for now.

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.
It doesn't make any sense to have the binary version strings
embedded into the library. The version strings are defined
already either in the Makefile or in include/c.h
Having one constructor depend on another means if the order
is reversed you get a different result.
Patched based on idea by Tom Evans.
