Towards support of taskset(1) within util-linux package

Towards support of taskset(1) within util-linux package

[Mark Geisert]

Hi Yaakov,
I patched util-linux locally to build the 'taskset' tool so I could test 
my implementation of the get- and set-affinity functions within Cygwin. 
The implementation will be part of the upcoming Cygwin 3.1.0 release.

I'm not sure how to manipulate the build environment so I could supply a 
'git send-mail' of a 'git format-patch' that would be usable to you.
I hope the following 'diff -u' outputs will be useful; but if you'd prefer 
a different format just let me know.

Thank you for all your work on Cygwin!
