libutil: eliminate one syscall from kinfo_getproc

Browse Source 
Previously we invoked the sysctl with a NULL buffer to query the size,
allocated a buffer, then invoked it again to fetch the data.

As we only handle the case where the sysctl provides data of the
expected size we can just allocate a correctly-sized buffer to begin
with.
