docs: un-deprecate kill(1)
* util-linux kill implementation is used in many distributions
* the latest active procps upstream (fork at http://gitorious.org/procps/)
does not build kill(1) by default
* util-linux implementation is actively improved and we follow Linux
kernel features (e.g. RT signals, sigqueue(2) support, ...)
* kill(1) is basic command without dependence on /proc, it does not make
sense to have it in procps package.
... so it does not make sense to mark deprecate this code.
