proc: export a processes resource limits via /proc/pid



Currently, there exists no method for a process to query the resource
limits of another process.  They can be inferred via some mechanisms but
they cannot be explicitly determined.  Given that this information can be
usefull to know during the debugging of an application, I've written this
patch which exports all of a processes limits via /proc/<pid>/limits.
