82d8e3faf3 tests: Fix type for check_fatal_proc_unmounted
While ps used the correct type for PIDS_VM_RSS the test
did not. For some reason this only appeared to be an issue
for s390x

b89e3230b2 library: adapted for absent 'core id' in /proc/cpuinfo
A big oops on my part - with a big thanks to Dr. Fink.

[ this version eliminates an extraneous startup call ]
[ to the 'stat_cores_verify' function as superfluous ]

f571746af2 library: tweak support of p-core/e-core identification
Wow, after this we'll eliminate one 'jmp' instruction!

[ plus we can also save a single precious whitespace ]

6e51196589 library: provided for cpu p-core/e-core identification
With Intel's 12th generation Alder Lake processors now
providing two distinct types of core, it would be nice
if the library offered some sort of clue to core type.

Well, with this patch it does. We'll have 2 additional
enumerators. One deals with the cpu's core association
and the other provides the type of that core (P or E).

[ now, all we need is for some program to exploit it ]

046883b9d3 library: address an 'uninitialised value' VALGRIND bug
Thanks to valgrind and his --track-origins=yes option,
the problem and solution was suggested as shown below.

[ and it was created in that commit referenced below ]

But, after attacking this problem by adding a memset()
call in pids.c, a 2nd valgrind oops, also shown below,
was encountered. The dynamically acquired 'cmd' again!

[ might help to explain why changes appear excessive ]
