Apply patch submitted with PR 217159 to make ps use unlimited
width when not associated with a terminal (i.e., none of stdout, stdin,
or stderr is a tty). Update comments and man page correspondingly.
This change was requested to work around lack of -ww in scripts from
third-party packages, including Hadoop, and adds a small measure of
Linux compatibility. Hopefully few if any non-interactive scripts
depend on the old default of 79.

Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

target. Due to a way issignal() selects the next signal to deliver
and report, if the simultaneous or already pending another signal
exists, that signal might be reported by the next waitpid(2) call.
This causes minor annoyance for debuggers, which must be prepared to
take any signal as the first event, then filter SIGSTOP later.
More importantly, for tools like gcore(1), which attach and then
detach without processing events, SIGSTOP might leak to be delivered
after PT_DETACH. This results in the process being unintentionally
stopped after detach, which is fatal for automatic tools.
The solution is to force SIGSTOP to be the first signal reported after
the attach. Attach code is modified to set P2_PTRACE_FSTP to indicate
that the attaching ritual was not yet finished, and issignal() prefers
SIGSTOP in that condition. Also, the thread which handles
P2_PTRACE_FSTP is made to guarantee to own p_xthread during the first
waitpid(2). All that ensures that SIGSTOP is consumed first.
Additionally, if P2_PTRACE_FSTP is still set on detach, which means
that waitpid(2) was not called at all, SIGSTOP is removed from the
queue, ensuring that the process is resumed on detach.
In issignal(), when acting on STOPing signals, remove the signal from
queue before suspending. Otherwise parallel attach could result in
ptracestop() acting on that STOP as if it was the STOP signal from the
attach. Then SIGSTOP from attach leaks again.
As a minor refactoring, some bits of the common attach code is moved
to new helper proc_set_traced().

The previous 12h AM/PM format was perplexing as it didn't follow the
locale of the user and was a minor annoyance to FreeBSD users coming
from Linux. Additionally, the man page was incorrect about the strftime
format.
There are three time formats that may be displayed in the STARTED
column depending on the age of the process. Below is an example.
For a process started at 14:30 on Monday 16 March 2015, the following
formats may be used:
14:30 for process < 24h old (24h Timestamp)
Mon14 for process > 24h, < 1 week old (Weekday Hour)
16Mar15 for process > 1 week old (Day Month Year)

feature is to quisce the system before suspend.
Stop is implemented by reusing the thread_single(9) with the special
mode SINGLE_ALLPROC. SINGLE_ALLPROC differs from the existing
single-threading modes by allowing (requiring) caller to operate on
other process. Interruptible sleeps for !TDF_SBDRY threads are
suspended like SIGSTOP does it, instead of aborting the sleep, like
SINGLE_NO_EXIT, to avoid spurious EINTRs on resume.
Provide debugging sysctl debug.stop_all_proc, which causes total stop
and suspends syncer, while waiting for variable reset for resume. It
is used for debugging; should be removed after the real use of the
interface is added.

One problem is inferior(9) looping due to the process tree becoming a
graph instead of tree if the parent is traced by child. Another issue
is due to the use of p_oppid to restore the original parent/child
relationship, because real parent could already exited and its pid
reused (noted by mjg).
Add the function proc_realparent(9), which calculates the parent for
given process. It uses the flag P_TREE_FIRST_ORPHAN to detect the head
element of the p_orphan list and than stepping back to its container
to find the parent process. If the parent has already exited, the
init(8) is returned.
Move the P_ORPHAN and the new helper flag from the p_flag* to new
p_treeflag field of struct proc, which is protected by proctree lock
instead of proc lock, since the orphans relationship is managed under
the proctree_lock already.
The remaining uses of p_oppid in ptrace(PT_DETACH) and process
reapping are replaced by proc_realparent(9).
