Jim Warner 96e2220068 library: address major bug in the 'listed_nextpid' guy 
Ever since 2003, the 'listed_nextpid' routine has been
misrepresenting its duties. Far from finding processes
in a list given to openproc, it just inserted the next
pid in that list into the passed proc_t as BOTH a tgid
and tid. There was no attempt to validate such values.

The net result is that tid & tgid were valid only with
a thread group leader. When called with a pid for some
sibling thread, the resulting tgid would be incorrect.

With this commit, our little function will now attempt
to validate both the tid and tgid. If this should fail
then the fallback position will be the same as what we
inherited. So we're no worse off & likely much better.

[ note that calling the function with a thread's pid ]
[ likely stems from 2011 when a 'readeither' routine ]
[ was added which dealt with both tasks and threads! ]
