Subject: [PATCH] ps: Fix possible buffer overflow in -C option

ps allocates memory using malloc(length of arg * len of struct).
In certain strange circumstances, the arg length could be very large
and the multiplecation will overflow, allocating a small amount of
memory.

Subsequent strncpy() will then write into unallocated memory.
The fix is to use calloc. It's slower but this is a one-time
allocation. Other malloc(x * y) calls have also been replaced
by calloc(x, y)
