The uid_t and gid_t fields appear to present a 32/64-bit userspace/kernel
problem for some archs.
This patch addresses the problem by fixing the size to the largest size for
uid_t/gid_t used in the kernel. This preserves the total size of the event
structure while ensuring that the layouts of the ID change event match in
32 and 64-bit kernels and applications.

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).
