Pseudo-terminals, and what tmux and htop needed around them

- /dev/ptmx and /dev/pts/N: Unix98 pairs with a full line discipline,
  window sizes, job control and hangup (kernel/dev/pty.c).
- The console speaks scroll regions, insert/delete line, SU/SD, RI/IND/NEL,
  DECSC/DECRC; swallows charset designations and private CSI sequences;
  and LF only returns the carriage under ONLCR.
- setsid() drops the controlling terminal, so a pane's pty becomes its ctty.
- pipe2() honours O_NONBLOCK and O_CLOEXEC (libevent's signal pipe).
- File modes are stored and enforced: chmod, fchmod(at), umask, creation
  modes; /tmp is 1777.
- /proc/stat has real user/system/idle; /proc/<pid>/task; kthread flag.
- SO_PEERCRED, IOV_MAX 1024.
- /proc/strace: name a program and its syscalls go to the kernel log.
- World gains htop, btop, tmux, mc, ncdu, fastfetch, games, X toys, NetSurf.
