2598e9f2ce documentation: Update pids manual pages
Updated the full suite of manual pages for the procps_pids_*
functions. The only one missing is procps_pids_get which
may not be required.

9abf7d879d library: protect against large version numbers.
Linux release numbers are x.y.z we assumed but never protected
against x> 0x7fff and y,z > 0xff before.

Linux release in 1991, 1 major release per 6 years so we're fine
until 7452, unless they do way too many minor rels (max being 39)

6b5cb345c5 library: procps_uptime() return value is a status
procps_uptime, previously just plain uptime() used to put the
uptime (as a double) in the first argument and return uptime
(as an int).

It meant if you ran
 myuptime2 = procps_uptime(&myuptime1, NULL);
You might get different results for myuptime1 and myuptime2 because
they are different types.

Most library calls use the return value to return the status,
procps_uptime was in the middle.

Until now.

This function will return 0 on success. If you want (for whatever
reason) uptime as an int then cast it.

All of the procps binaries didn't use the return value for uptime
except ps which set a variable to it but never used it anywhere.

d15a8901d2 docs: Cleanup procps_linux_version page
Getting the manual page for procps_linux_version(3) fixed up so
