So this patch just omits one use of dlclose and relies

had it. Plus we trade those namespaces custom suppress
logic for our now slightly enhanced make_num function.

top: man page now includes resident memory enhancement
Since support already exists in the newlib branch this
represents an equivalent master branch implementation,
and this commit message is shared with 2 more patches.
Beginning with linux-4.5, the following new fields are
being added under that /proc/<pid>/status pseudo file:
. RssAnon - size of resident anonymous memory
. RssFile - size of resident file mappings
. RssShmem - size of resident shared memory
p.s. Locked resident memory support was also added but
isn't directly related to the kernel 4.5 enhancements.
p.p.s. Archlinux, Debian-stretch and Fedora-23 already
are currently using a 4.5 linux kernel (as of 6/2/16).

bprocps: fix order of operations for %use of slabinfo
In some environments, 100 * nr_active_objs is calculated at first,
and lower 32bit of the result is divided by nr_objs.
If 100 * nr_active_objs > 42949672, %use will be incorrect.

pidof: check cmd if space in argv0
A difference in behaviour between the sysvinit and procps pidof
was that the procps one would sometimes not find process that
the sysvinit one did.
The difference is that if a space is found in argv[0] then sysvinit
would look at cmd for a match. This isn't perfect and more of a
best guess but does often work.
procps pidof now follows the same "standard". The most obvious
difference is with kde based processes and incoming ssh connections
with sshd.
