The procio functions that were in the library have been
moved into sysctl. sysctl is not linked to libprocps in
newlib and none of the other procps binaries would need
to read/write large data to the procfs.

be increased by the stdio function getline(3) on the

to be able to read and write large buffers below /proc.
The buffers and file offsets are handled dynamically
on the required buffer size at read, that is lseek(2)
is used to determine this size. Large buffers at
write are split at a delimeter into pieces and also
lseek(2) is used to write each of them.

As it turns out, that Ukrainian 'demo' text supporting
the '=' command was 152 bytes long, up from an English
version of 80 bytes. Unfortunately, the buffer used to
format all such strings was insufficient at 128 bytes.
Depending on the width of one's terminal, some strange
result could be experienced when a multi-byte sequence
was truncated. So, this just makes that buffer bigger.

After wrestling with extra wide characters, supporting
languages like zh_CN, sometimes default/minimum column
widths might force a truncation of translated headers.
So, this commit explores one way that such truncations
could be avoided. It is designed so as to have minimal
impact on existing code, ultimately affecting just one
function. But it's off by default via its own #define.

When I recently added extra wide character support for
locales like zh_CN, I didn't worry about some overhead
associated with the new calls to 'mbtowc' & 'wcwidth'.
That's because such overhead was usually incurred with
user interactions, not a normal iterative top display.
There was, however, one area where this overhead would
impact the normal iterative top mode - that's with the
Summary display. So I peeked at the glibc source code.
As it turns out, the costs of executing those 'mbtowc'
and 'wcwidth' functions were not at all insignificant.
So, this patch will avoid them in the vast majority of
instances, while still enabling extra wide characters.

There is (should be) no justification for changing the
width of the percentage columns (%CPU, %MEM) depending
on the BOOST_PERCNT #define. So this patch will ensure
that both columns are fixed at their former maximum 5.

In addition to exploiting the login user ID provision,
the following miscellaneous changes are also included:
. unnecessary braces have been eliminated from an 'if'
. a comment with case EU_CPU: was corrected to 's_int'
and the associated block of code relocated accordingly
. case EU_CPN: wasn't shared with other enumerators so
reference to 'i' was changed to that actual enumerator
. case EU_SGN: wasn't shared with other enumerators so
reference to 'i' was changed to that actual enumerator

Back when top was refactored to support UTF-8 encoding
it was acknowledged that languages like zh_CN were not
supported. That was because a single 'character' might
require more than a single 'column' when it's printed.
Well I've now figured out how to accommodate languages
like that. My adaptation is represented in this patch.
[ and just in case someone wishes to avoid the extra ]
[ runtime costs, a #define OFF_XTRAWIDE is included. ]
Along the way, I've cleaned up some miscellaneous code
supporting the 'Inspect' feature so that the rightmost
screen column was always used rather than being blank.
[ interestingly, my xterm & urxvt terminal emulators ]
[ are able to split extra wide characters then print ]
[ 1/2 of such graphics in the last column. the gnome ]
[ terminal emulator does not duplicate such behavior ]
[ but prints 1 extra character in same width window. ]

When the new approach for startup defaults was adopted
in the reference below, a file might be left open that
technically should be closed. This situation arises in
the unlikely event the #define RCFILE_NOERR is active.
Without that #define, the program will exit early thus
rendering the open file issue moot. However, even with
that #define there was no real harm with an open file.
It simply meant a 2nd FILE struct would have been used
when, or if, the rcfile was written via a 'W' command.
Anyway, this patch ensures such a file will be closed.

fopen() returned. If the file could not be opened then the file

setvbuf() is now called after checking what fopen() returns and only
