First stage in sanitizing the process list structure so that htop
can support other types of lists too (cgroups, filesystems, ...),
in the not-too-distant future.
This introduces struct Machine for system-wide information while
keeping process-list information in ProcessList (now much less).
Next step is to propogate this separation into each platform, to
match these core changes.
Use only one enum instead of a global and a platform specific one.
Drop Platform_numberOfFields global variable.
Set known size of Process_fields array
Reasoning:
- implementation was unsound -- broke down when I added a fairly
basic macro definition expanding to a struct initializer in a *.c
file.
- made it way too easy (e.g. via otherwise totally innocuous git
commands) to end up with timestamps such that it always ran
MakeHeader.py but never used its output, leading to overbuild noise
when running what should be a null 'make'.
- but mostly: it's just an awkward way of dealing with C code.
