Add a return value so we are able to check any errors and actually fail
when there has been a critical error instead of carrying on uselessly.

It is not necessary to copy memory or anything. Just keep a pointer to
the active prefix-array and assign the length of the arrays to a
variable.

Make the code more readable by using a switch, be more strict when an
invalid base is passed to it and fix a small oversight in the bottom of
the code where the base 1024 was forgotten to generalized.

Now only one function, fmt_human, takes an additional argument "base".

In a later commit something like that will be enabled for every
component

- Line length
- Spacing and indentation
- No explicit checks for NULL

This is a first step to decouple formatting from information because of
two reasons:

 1. The components should only gather and return the values by design
 2. Fine grained user control should be a focus

Scaling will be implemented in a different way in a later commit.

On some laptops (mostly thinkpads), the remaining time may be
expressed in µWh using energy_now and power_now files rather than µAh
for charge_now and current_now.

Add pick function to conditionally select appropriate one.

free the interface list before returning from the function

These functions take the raw number and a unit and automatically
print it out "scaled down" to a proper SI-prefix, for powers of 2
and 10 respectively.

Apply them to the 2-power cases and keep the 10-power for a later
commit.

Units should be added to the corresponding numbers

First dividing by interval before multiplying with 1000 decreases the
precision by +-(interval - 1) * 1000, as interval arithmetic always
applies the Gauß-function to the result.

This is not necessary and simply reordering the operations mitigates
this.

Within the components, snprintf() was unchecked and had inefficient
calls in some places.
We implement esnprintf() that does all the dirty laundry for us
and use it exclusively now.

implemented additional error condition for openbsd netstat in case the
interface could not be found in the interface list or if_data is not
readable.

implemented the netspeed functionality for openbsd.
furthermore the static keyword was removed of the interval variable in
config.def.h for usage as extern variable.

Additionally unify the format of battery_state and uptime

when an AC is connected apm_info shows a non-valid value for remaining
minutes. it was decided that in that case the function should return an
empty string.

Tabs for indentation, spaces for alignment

Implementation of a battery_remaining function which returns the
remaining battery time in HH:MM format. Linux function still needs
implementation.
Move common code to load_apm_power_info
