Now we are always using the same text also for commands
which had still hardcoded descriptions or where we can't
use the standard print_usage_help_options macro.

Consolidate --help and --version descriptions. We are
now able to align them to the other options.
We changed include/c.h. The rest of this patch was
generated by sed, plus manually setting the right
alignment numbers. We do not change anything but
white spaces in the --help output.

We are using better/shorter error messages and somtimes
also errtryhelp().
Here we fix all cases where the usage function took
an int argument for exit_code.

The pid 0 is technically correct, but very confusing for end users. Use
getpid() in the messages.

This fixes a regression introduced in:
commit 7a4ea5664e
"chrt: add control struct"
Previously (and as documented in the manpage) the default policy
was SCHED_RR. Now it's implicitly SCHED_OTHER (0) as the value
is not initialized explicitly anymore.

Some time back, I moved the discussion of scheduling from
sched_setscheduler(2) to a new sched(7) page. Adjust the cross
reference in the taskset(1) page accordingly.

This patch does only the following:
* Order SEE ALSO entries first by section name, then alphabetically
within section
* Adds one or two missing commas in SEE ALSO lists
* Removes one or two periods that were (inconsistently) used
at the end of SEE ALSO lists.

Broken since 6f27e449. We could not enter the fallback
if HAVE_SCHED_SETATTR is not defined.
Two gcc warnings made this issue visible:
schedutils/chrt.c:247:1: warning: label 'fallback' defined but not used [-Wunused-label]
schedutils/chrt.c:266:9: warning: 'policy' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized]

* do not reset 'nice' setting by sched_setattr(), if 'nice' setting
is not zero then chrt ends with EPERM for non-root users:
$ renice -n 5 -p $$; chrt -v -b 0 date
12475 (process ID) old priority 0, new priority 5
chrt: failed to set pid 0's policy: Operation not permitted
* it seems more elegant to always use old sched_setscheduler() API for
non-deadline policies; in this case we do not need getpriority()
to keep 'nice' unchanged.

The man page confusingly says that the mask is "typically"
hexadecimal, when in fact it is always hexadecimal. Fix the
language, and provide an additional example with no leading "0x".
Also, provide an example using the --cpu-list option.

We have fallback for compilation with/without proper glibc and kernel
headers, but it's not enough, because people can switch between
kernels with and without the syscalls. (For example RT kernels for
RHEL/CentOS).

Before this patch, it wasn't clear whether '0' or '7' should be used to
specify "highest priority". (The answer could have been inferred from
the 'Examples' section of the man page.)

Earlier message:
$ chrt -i 1 ls
chrt: failed to set pid 0's policy: Invalid argument
basically told 'something failed', while the new one tries to be more
helpful.
$ chrt -i 1 ls
chrt: unsupported priority value for the policy: 1: see --max for valid range

Commit 42f15e9848 introduced a certain
inaccuracy in -c option description; it is not _the option with an argument_,
but it is the flag that changes interpretation of `mask` parameter.
The difference is almost not noticeable, but there are one corner case where it is:
taskset -c 1 -p $$
fails (but it would work if 42f15e was correct). Instead,
taskset -c -p 1 $$
works (but it should not have if 42f15e was correct).

This patch introduces
