e751606fcc ps: add -q/q/--quick-pid option
This commit introduces a new option q/-q/--quick-pid
to the 'ps' command. The option does a similar job
to the p/-p/--pid option (i.e. selection of PIDs
listed in the comma separated list that follows
the option), but the new option is optimized
for speed.
In cases where users only need to specify a list
of PIDs to be shown and don't need other selection
options, forest type output and sorting options,
the new option is recommended as it decreases
the initial processing delay by avoiding reading
the necessary information from all the processes
running on the system and by simplifying
the internal filtering logic.

dc1531b211 Removed bogus bogus -aux message
This message has been here for ages and either people ignore it because
they are so used to using -aux or never see it.  It was here before 2005
and really 7 years is enought time to people to change their ways.

The notice is now removed, people who make usenames like "x" deserve all
the punishment they can get.

421b08a4df all: fix misspellings in docs and program comments
We might as well join the coreutils and util-linux
projects in correcting our own typos.

The following was left unchanged:
   top/top.c[1797]: thru -> "through"

79ceb30b5c ps: unify cases and remove trailing dots in messages
Strings with lower caps & no trailing dots have greater change to
have multiple occurences, meaning less effort for translators, than
strings with them.

The catastrophic_failure function tries to make bug reporting useful
by telling in which line error occured, and drops core.

4fb48c0bdb ps: generalize help text logic, add related translator hints
This commit represents an experiment in nls help text support.

The word --help itself been made translatable along with the
help section names and their abbreviations.  Thus, the work of
the translators will ultimately alter program run-time behavior.

Perhaps someday all "long" options can behave in a similar way
which could offer a considerable benefit to other languages.
Instead of translationg just option descriptions, the long
forms of those options could also be transalated.

This commit also:
 . includes the section abbreviations in --help output
 . isolates all --help support in the ps/help.c module
 . provides (hopefully) meaningful Translator guidance
 . removes --help support from the ps/common.h header
 . removes --help support from the ps/parser.c module
 . eliminates tabs in line with the style of other ps modules
 . eliminates the need for the include/c.h header file

b8c3288594 ps: exclude debugging only code from participation in nls support
This commit is prmarily concerned with elimnating deugging only

It also eliminates any remaing useless trailing whitespace.

71b72b36ce ps: minor reformatting and trailing whitespace elimination
This patch mostly reorganizes include files and eliminates
some useless trailing whitespace.

It also adopts the standard procps-ng unconditional approach
to nls initialization.

2865ded64e Removed xalloc type functions from library
These xalloc functions are a private function for the library. If using
programs need them, then they should make their own error reporting or
use a common file.

fe82a3246a ps: add build option to disable ps option warning
Slackware seems to have this patch, while it is not in use(?) Well,
the upstream procps-ng allows one to disable warnings if that is
wanted. After all having this sort of 'feature' does not cost much,
while lacking it might annoy someone.

A patch from Slackware.

229be7b160 ps: exploit enhanced library memory allocation provisions
There were numerous ps memory allocation inconsistencies.
Some were checked for failure and others were not.

The program was modified to utilize the library memory
rouines which are consistent in dealing with errors.

(a few changes simply removed trailing whitespace)
