An earlier commit improved the scroll coordinates
message performance by offloading most of the work
to those occasions when column headers were rebuilt.
The only remaining per-frame costs were the addition
of some terminfo escapes and the Frame_maxtask count.
This commit further reduces those per-frame costs to
the absolute minimum.

Current linux kernels output no more than 32 groups
in /proc/{pid}/status.
Plan is to increase this limit.
This patch allows ps to not core dump if the buffer used to read status
file was too small.
# ps aux
Signal 11 (SEGV) caught by ps (procps-ng version 3.3.3).
ps:display.c:59: please report this bug
Also increases the size of the buffer from 1024 to 4096, since even with
32 groups we are close to the limit.

The 'refactor and enhance column width management'
recent redesign produced many subsequent benefits,
the latest of which is automatically sized fixed-width
non-scalable columns.
As expected, there was a cost associated with these
many enhancements. That cost has now been identified
as a 1-4% performance degradation, depending on which
fields are being displayed.
This increased cost arises principally from current
drawing related function calls, whereas top-3.3.3 did
most of its drawing via macros effectively inlining
those duties.
This commit inlines the equivalent drawing functions,
thus eliminating the function call penalty, and places
this top on a par with top-3.3.3. The trade off is a
modest additional 4k in executable size.

The recent introduction of a column widths override
(the 'X' command) provided for a user input amount
to be added to default field size which ranged from
5 to 10 bytes.
While that approach could prevent truncated data, the
different default sizes would almost certainly mean
some precious screen real estate was waisted.
This commit introduces the concept of dynamic widths
where top will add only enough to a field default to
prevent truncation for that specific field.
Now users have a choice between their explicit width
override or a width chosen by top to exactly match
display needs. The former is immediate but likely
wastes some horizontal space while the latter is
iterative but will be sized precisely.
Original 'X' Command:

There were some gaps in the alternate navigation keys
top provided. Additionally, some inconsistencies
existed in the supporting key table.
This commit adds the following new key equivalents,
mirroring the standard vim navigation keys:
. ctrl+alt+ k = pgup, ctrl+alt+ j = pgdown
. ctrl+alt+ h = home, ctrl+alt+ l = end
Also, the supporting table entries now consistently
follow these "directions":
. up/pgup, down/pgdown, left/home, right/end

To support the cursor navigation keys, after saving
the termios structure top issues 'smkx/keypad_xmit'
during startup. However, some terminals appear to
treat that directive as persistent which leaves a
corrupted tty state after top exit.
This commit reverses the above terminal directive
via 'rmkx/keypad_local' just prior to restoring the
saved termios structure at program end.

This 'Sleeping in function' field was made variable
width because the length of current kernel symbols
usually exceeded the former top's 9 character limit.
As a variable width field it would steal valuable
horizontal display positions from other, more likely,
displayed fields such as COMMAND or CGROUPS.
With the advent of the new 'X' toggle, no fixed-width
non-scalable field need suffer permanent truncation.
Thus, WCHAN is being made fixed width with a default
size of 10 characters.

This commit accommodates those fields which may have
suffered truncation due to these default limits:
. 5 digits for uid/gid type fields
. 8 characters for user/group type fields
With a new interactive command, users can increase the
width of all such fields, or return to the defaults.
Note:
There are no restrictions on the amount added to
the defaults. The user is free to vastly exceed
screen limits which simply means such fields can
never be displayed.

When the maj_delta and min_delta fields were added to
the proc_t, they necessitated some compiler generated
padding bytes.
With this slight reordering, those padding bytes are
no longer generated. And since the original commit
already broke the library ABI, now is an opportune
time to correct that misalignment.

The UNIX and POSIX standards require that user and
group names be printed as decimal integers when there
is insufficient room. This has led to a constant
stream of bug reports.
With this commit, long names will be truncated and
displayed with a trailing visual clue.
To avoid truncation. the UNIX and POSIX way to change
column width is to rename the column:
ps -o pid,user=CumbersomeUserNames -o comm
The easy way is to directly specify the desired width:
ps -o pid,user:19,comm

The TREE_RESCANS #define (formerly TREE_ONEPASS) has
been eliminated and the approach to forest view mode
redesigned. The chance of dangling children has been
eliminated and overhead reduced.
We now order processes on start_time (non-display)
and are therefore immune to any pid, ppid or tgid
anomalies when pid values wrap.
The new algorithm also accommodates any distortions
caused by the 3.3 kernel 'hidepid' provisions --
something guaranteed to produce dangling children
under the former approach.

In an effort to avoid dangling children when in forest
view mode, top defaulted to a complete rescan of every
proc_t for each child encountered.
That expense was never really cost justified and now
with the 3.3 kernel 'hidepid' provisions it no longer
can offer such protection.
With this commit, the TREE_ONEPASS define is changed
to TREE_RESCANS so as to reverse the default scan
behavior.

With the introduction of intra-column scrolling, the
scroll coordinates message was enhanced to give some
hint of positioning within a scrolled column.
Rather than rebuild this somewhat costly string from
scratch with each frame, we'll now do the bulk of the
work only when column headers are constructed.
The only remaining per frame costs will then be the
addition of a few terminfo escapes and the current
Frame_maxtask count.

This commit introduces horizontal scrolling within any
variable width column. Thus, an entire command line,
complete list of control groups, etc. can now be
viewed -- not just a screen width's portion.
It is activated when any variable width column:
. is (via field selection) or
. has become (via the right arrow key)
the only displayed field.
Then, the right and left arrow keys can be used in the
normal way to continue scrolling within that column.
The amount scrolled with each key press is currently
set as the normal tab stop increment of 8 characters.

The control group hierarchies for any particular task
could conceivably grow quite large. However, the
library might impose an arbitrary limit of 1024 bytes
via fill_cgroup_cvt.
Two utility buffers of 128 KiB each were already
available for command line use. This commit simply
trades the smaller 1024 byte stack based buffers for
those much larger existing ones. Thus, truncation
can be avoided with no additional run-time costs.
