pidfd_open, process_mrelease: define SYS constants if undefined

pidfd_open, process_mrelease fail (gracefully) at runtime
instead of at compile time.

notify_ext: implement waiting with timeout
commit fbe2b6ba434d009c44b5716dbfbc6a56b4365acd
Author: Jakob Unterwurzacher <jakobunt@gmail.com>
Date: Sat Sep 13 15:29:45 2025 +0200
Use SIGCHLD handler instead of setting it to SIG_IGN
This will allow wait()ing on children if we want to.
commit b5eac958d78beb22a4847e9a254f3b2a30f1cf03
Author: Manuel A. Fernandez Montecelo <mafm@igalia.com>
Date: Thu Aug 28 17:26:09 2025 +0200
Implement -P to invoke a program as pre-hook before killing a process
This implements an option to invoke an external program, analog to the
existing "-N" (which runs a program after killing a process), but
being executed before sending signals to the process, with purposes
such as gathering some specific info of the running process.

Revert "notify: use double-fork instead of ignoring SIGCHLD"
Will implement this another way: by properly setting
a SIGCHLD handler.
This reverts commit 4fb4ab89a495427305c82983d168a0efb3482921.

notify: use double-fork instead of ignoring SIGCHLD
This will allow us to properly check the exit code
of the pre-notify script ( https://github.com/rfjakob/earlyoom/pull/348 )
which would not be possible when ignoring SIGCHLD.
Ignoring SIGCHLD causes the kernel to auto-reap children
and we cannot access the exit code.

Makefile: hardcode systemd unit installation path

Makefile: remove spurious whitespace in install-man directive
commit f7d6f1cc925962fbdcf57b1c2aeeabbf11e2d542
Author: Anderson Torres <torres.anderson.85@protonmail.com>

Makefile: factor in PREFIX to install directories
Sometimes we want to set PREFIX and leave the installation directories relative
to the PREFIX.
Other times we want to set some of these installation directories to absolute
values.
Sometimes we want both.
This commit patch achieves this with a reasonably small effort, by not
propagating PREFIX around the Makefile.

Makefile: set MANDIR according to GNU Install Dirs guidelines
As described in GNU Coding Standards.
This is especially useful for
- software distributions that do not follow FHS
- splitted packages
- slim environments, e.g containers
