Despite this mistake is also found in the collectd-5.5 and 5.6 lines,
the fix is scheduled for 5.7.0 because it will change 2 VL's
type_instances, possibly breaking users' dashboards or alerting.
processes plugin generates spikes on (re)start. That is caused by
wrong counter logic: When collectd (re)started, monitored processes,
which was started before collectd, have non-zero values in
cpu_user/cpu_system/vmem_minflt/vmem_majflt, so `want_init` is false.
What produces spike.
At other hand, processes which are started between read cycles, should
be fully accounted without initialization. So, we must skip only first
cycle for these counters.

processes plugin: Remove unused fields from structures
Fields cpu_user, cpu_system, vmem_minflt, vmem_majflt are always equal to zero for new entries (which are passed to ps_list_add()).
Values of these fields are not used in `procstat_t` entries too. So, that can be safely removed.

rdtmon: Addressed PR comments
1. use size_t type for all arrays and indexes
2. change malloc()/memset() to calloc()
3. fix minor code style issues
4. add range validation of core id values
5. use 'bytes' type for LLC value
6. add 'memory_bandwidth' type for MBM values
Weirdly, this only surfaces when building with CFLAGS="-O0 -g".

src/daemon/plugin.[ch]: Make the user_data_t* const.
That is, user_data_t* passed to register_* functions. The actual callbacks
are still getting a user_data_t* since they, in theory, would be able to
modify the pointer stored in .data.

command parser: Add a vector-based interface.
The new interface expects a parsed list of fields. Parsing of input buffers
is now done centrally in the generic code and the existing parser is a
wrapper around this and the new vector-based parser. The actual command
parsers (PUTVAL for now) receive the parsed list of fields.
As a side-effect, this changes the parser behavior a little:
- "foo=a string with spaces or \\ special characters" is now valid syntax
for specifying options in addition to foo="value with spaces, etc.".
- foo= is now a valid option even without quotes around the empty value.

Add a generic interface for parsing the text protocol.
Implement it for PUTVAL for now.
The text protocol is used in multiple places and the parser will avoid code
duplication in client programs which can, instead, use it to generate the
respective requests.
Use the 'cmd_' prefix for public functions related to command handling.

RRDCacheD plugin: Try to reconnect upon failed operations.
The RRD client library does not provide means to check the status of a
connection and there's no way to detect that the connection is broken after,
for example, the daemon restarted. To work around that, try to reconnect if
any client operation fails.
A copy of the values was made in plugin_dispatch_values_internal(). This
code predates the "write queue", which means that each value list (and
its values) are copied anyway and vl->values will always point to heap
memory.
1) Added missing option description
2) Replaced strerror with sstrerror
3) Do not return from helper code
4) Use generic collectd Interval implementation
5) Removed "\n" from log messages
src/daemon/utils_time.c: Pass "struct tm *" to format_zone().
This is a partial revert of e2cb258c7b6ce456f4119fd1454c85b479fa3e2d:
strptime() does not look the local timezone up itself but gets the
information from the "struct tm". If that is initialized with {0}, it
will always return the "+0000" time zone.
