Subject: [PATCH] basic/process-util: limit command line lengths to _SC_ARG_MAX

This affects systemd-journald and systemd-coredump.

Example entry:
$ journalctl -o export -n1 'MESSAGE=Something logged'

2MB might be hard for some clients to use meaningfully, but OTOH, it is
important to log the full commandline sometimes. For example, when the program
is crashing, the exact argument list is useful.
