osutil: implement setprocname to set process title for some platforms This patch adds a simple setprocname method to osutil. The operation is not defined by any standard and is platform-specific, the current implementation tries to cover some major platforms (ex. Linux, OS X, FreeBSD) that is relatively easy to support. Other platforms (Windows [4], other BSDs, ...) can be added in the future. The current implementation supports two methods to change process title: a. setproctitle if available (works in FreeBSD). b. rewrite argv in place (works in Linux [1] and Mac OS X). [2] [3] [1]: Linux has "prctl(PR_SET_NAME, ...)" but 1) it has 16-byte limit, which is too small; 2) it is not quite equivalent to what we want - it changes "/proc/self/comm", not "/proc/self/cmdline" - "comm" change won't show up in "ps" output unless "-o comm" is used. [2]: The implementation does not rewrite the **environ buffer like some other implementations do, just to make the code simpler and safer. However, this also means the buffer size we can rewrite is significantly shorter. If we are really greedy and want the "environ" space, we can change the implementation later. [3]: It requires a CPython private API: Py_GetArgcArgv to get the original argv. Unfortunately Python 3 makes a copy of argv and returns the wchar_t version, so it is not supported for now. (if we really want to, we could count backwards from "char **environ", given known argc and argv, not sure if that's a good idea - probably not) [4]: The feature is aimed to make it easier for forked command server processes to show what they are doing. Since Windows does not support fork(), despite it's a major platform, its support is not added in this patch.

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
