Way back for release 3.2.6 of the original procps top,
a patch was introduced to explain abbreviations in the
summary area showing cpu state percentages. Ever since
that time the the 'id/idle' category has been missing.

This patch simply corrects that oversight, having been
noticed after a review of the outstanding Ubuntu bugs.
