95cd051c27 misc: tweak the recent copyright changes just a little
This commit just tweaks some recent copyright changes.

Foe example, the six public header files are unique to
this new library and thus are just attributed to Craig
and me. Plus, there were some misnamed file references
as '.c' for '.h' or 'libprocps' instead of 'libproc2'.

8fcfb01a81 misc: Update the copyrights of files
The copyrights of the source files were all out of date and were not
the same format. This has been corrected. The source of the authors
was examining the git log for each file.

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 ]
