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).

Transform some of them into copyright lines.
Also fix three header lines and snip some trailing whitespace.

A user is always allowed to change the CPU affinity of his or her
own processes. CAP_SYS_NICE is only required to change the affinity
of another user's process.

Use dates without the day, use the full month name, put "util-linux" in
the lower left corner, and "User Commands" or "System Administration"
at the top center.
Also improve here and there the one-line program description.

Add a new '-a' option to view/modify the CPU affinity for an entire
group of threads belonging to a given PID. We create two new
functions, print_affinity() and do_taskset() for code simplification.
Example:
zeus@jilguero:~/src/util-linux/schedutils$ ./taskset -a -p 01 3142
pid 3142's current affinity mask: 2
pid 3142's new affinity mask: 1
pid 3164's current affinity mask: 2
pid 3164's new affinity mask: 1
pid 854's current affinity mask: 2
pid 854's new affinity mask: 1
[kzak@redhat.com: - clean up
- move variables to struct taskset]
