When 'newlib' was introduced, in the commit referenced
below, the use of that glibc '__BEGIN_DECLS' macro was
standardized. However, as issue #88 revealed, this may
result in a fatal build error with other environments.
So, this patch just trades that macro for the standard
'#ifdef __cplusplus' conventions (thus avoiding use of
all those '#include <features.h>' directives as well).

Unlike the ps kludge under the master branch to ensure
that namespaces appear the same under both 32 & 64-bit
models, this newlib branch already used a proper type.
However source data still carried the original type as
'signed long' versus that more proper 'unsigned long'.
So, this patch makes sources & destinations identical.

The includes used to define a lot of things a library include
should not. It was also a bit messy what was exposed in the library
and what was not.
get_pid_digits -> procps_pid_length and exported correctly
MALLOC attribute move into relevant .c files
NORETURN attribute moved to relevant .c, not used in library
PURE attribute removed, it wasn't used
KLONG/KLF/STRTOUKL were fixed for long, so now just use long
HIDDEN attribute removed. It was for 3 functions. The PROCPS_EXPORT
seems to do the same (opposite) thing.
likely/unlikely removed from most places, its highly debateable
this does anything useful as CPUs have gotten smarter about branches.
Re-arranged the includes, ALL external programs should just #include
<proc/procps.h> then proc/procps.h includes headers for files that
have exported functions. procps.h and the headers it includes should
not use items that are not exportable (e.g. hidden functions or
macros) they go in procps-private.h
Functions related to namespaces were half-in half-out of the
procps library and didn't fit the standard naming scheme.
While struct { long ns[x]} is a bit clunky, its the only way
to "lock in" x. The alternative is to use ns_* variables.
This work was needed before pgrep could be converted.
