Jim Warner f7b84f45c7 top: tweak argument parsing for some locale situations
Boy I hate locale stuff. For code I thought was pretty
robust, Jaromir sure proved that it wasn't. Anyway, me
thinks this commit closes some gaps and will cause top
to behave appropriately under various locale settings.

It does *not* permit top to respond to the ',' and '.'
floating point separator without regard to the locale.
It does, however, enforce proper LC_NUMERIC responses.

Let's look on this commit as an interim solution until
Jaromir can create that proposed 'fp_decode' function.
Who knows, he might even borrow some of our mkfloat().

[ An aside: the coreutils sleep and timeout programs ]
[ claim to permit floating point arguments. However, ]
[ neither one will accept the comma separator should ]
[ the locale be a country that in fact uses a comma. ]

[ In other words, with this commit we are way ahead! ]

COMPATIBILITY

    This code is intended for use with Linux 2.6.xx, 3.x and
    hopefully all future kernels.

INSTALLATION

    If you are using git version of the project you need extra step.

    ./autogen.sh

    After that, and everyone using .tar.xz version of procps-ng, can
    do normal build.  Read './configure --help' to select options for
    your needs.

    ./configure
    make
    make install

    If you have DejaGNU installed you can run optional test suite.

    make check

PACKAGING

    If you are a downstream maintainer (packager) for a Linux
    distribution, please avoid causing troubles.  This section
    applies to you.

    Avoid maintaining distribution specific patches.  Send your
    patches to upstream, where they are at least reviewed, if not
    included.

    Please forward bug reports. If your bug database is public and
    busy enough to bother with, please make this known.  Follow
    Debian's lead in making the bug database easy to comment on via
    email without need for an account.

    For normal packages, ensure that you do not add debugging flags
    to the CFLAGS variable.
