ebb57668a1 build-sys: tweak make & activate some overlooked tests
This commit is just preparing for adding an Itemtables
verification test by reorganizing stuff and activating
a few previously inactive (overlooked?) test programs.

03437d7dd3 A locale-independent strtod
There is a need in some utilities to have a way of accepting both
types of decimal points "." and ",". The only way seems to be to
rebuild strtod().

This new function will accept "123.456" and "123,456" as 123.456
and considers them the same number. It means we lose thousands
separator, but this is rarely used.

test scripts are added to check the function returns the proper
values. There was simpler predecessor that got stuck on negative
0 or -0.123 which these tests flushed out.

420cd9c7c2 Create test process
For the test suite, procps used to use sleep which would just
create a process or two to test the tools against.  Some setups
coreutils creates all programs including sleep into one blob which
means a lot of the tests fail, see issue #2

procps has its own sleep program now.

0f8f760307 Manpage translations in Makefiles
The translated manpage generation has moved from scripts to
Makefiles. This asists with conditional building as well, no
need to regenerate the German pgrep man page if both
the original pgrep.1 and man-po/de.po is not changed.

My Makefile-fu fails me on producing a cross-product or double
iteration for languages and man pages. Until that is solved
each man page is explicitly built. No big deal but it doesn't
look elegant in the Makefile. Languages will be picked
up automatically if they are found in man-po, man-po/top or
man-po/ps

The README describes the three-step process for translating
the files, incase I forget or someone else wants to update them.

c7cf98b0e0 lib: add fileutils file with stream error checking facility
The close_stream() is copied from GNU lib. Inspiration to do this
is talk by Jim Meyering - Goodbye World! The perils of relying on
output streams in C.

cac93d35d0 build-sys: use dist-xz
Even as conservative project as coreutils has switched to xz distributions so
neither should we have any reason to use gz and waste space & bandwidth.

b260b11a3b lib: add strtol into utility library
The utility library is for functions which are shared in commands,
but that does not belong to libproc-ng.  The first function is a
wrapper for strtol that performs error checking, and exists if such
happen.
