3dc91da529 Update the date on the man page, since this the previous change added
a few new options.

a4c8a745a8 Support more POSIX/SUSv3 options:
- Change `-p' to allow a list of process IDs, and `-t' to allow a list
  of terminal names, instead of only a single value for each.
- Add the `-A' option of SUSv3, which is exactly the same as `-ax'.
- Add the `-G gidlist' (group id).
- Allow any of these "selector options" to be specified multiple times,
  and have `ps' keep adding to a given list -- instead of replacing the
  previously-specified values.
- Fix interactions between selector-options, so that: "If any are
  specified, ... ps shall select the processes represented by the
  inclusive OR of all the selection-criteria options." (from SUSv3)
- Add a `-X' option, which is the reverse of the `-x' option.

- various minor improvements in parsing and error handling.

This does not get us to match POSIX/SUSv3, but it gets us closer.  The
`-g pgidlist', `-R ruserlist' and `-s sidlist' options mentioned in
freebsd-standards are still under debate, so they skipped for now.
It should be true that this introduces no user-visible incompatible
changes, except to support "new stuff" that was not supported before.

f9a480abb1 Avoid the manpage layering violation and low-level implementation
details of libkvm, and just tell what the getbootfile(3) function
will return, by using the text from netstat(1) and dmesg(8).

cd31922f27 - Remove references to /dev/kmem -- ps(1) utilizes the
sysctl(3) interface in kvm(3).
- Document the correct default when no -N is specified.
- Remove stale reference to /var/db/kvm_kernel.db.
- Remove stale reference to /var/run/dev.db.

4e8b6a6fb0 Improvements to 'ps -p <x>'. If <x> is a process id that does not exist, then
just print the header (if any) and exit, thus matching the behavior on -stable
and other OS's.

Also adds support for <x> being a comma-separated list of processes, and does
a much better checking for invalid-values of <x>, such as 'ps -p someword'.

2af538eb48 Use the MAC interface to list process MAC labels rather than using
the LOMAC-specific interface (which is being deprecated).  The
revised LOMAC using the MAC framework will export levels listable
using this mechanism.

2dda9fe910 Allow whitespace to act as a delimiter in the keywords list given to the -o,
again, but also allow it in the user-specified header, too.  This is far more
backwards compatible and SUSv3-happy than allowing only comma to seperate the
keywords list.
