[PATCH] Process Events Connector

This patch adds a connector that reports fork, exec, id change, and exit
events for all processes to userspace.  It replaces the fork_advisor patch
that ELSA is currently using.  Applications that may find these events
useful include accounting/auditing (e.g.  ELSA), system activity monitoring
(e.g.  top), security, and resource management (e.g.  CKRM).
