* New utility: gamemodelist
While trying out gamemode on Ubuntu 18.04 I had trouble figuring out
whether or not my games were running with gamemode enabled. I wrote this
utility which prints all processes loaded with the gamemode shared
library.
- [x] Added utility to `data/` folder.
- [x] Update meson installer.
- [x] Included section 1 manual.
- [x] Updated README for Ubuntu 18.04 build instructions. Steam supports
Ubuntu 18.04.
I'm open to feedback and generally this should work for any distrobution
since it makes use of the Linux `/proc` filesystem. [Learn more about
`/proc`][1].

Add a trivial gamemode.conf file, which creates the gamemode group.
v2: git add gamemode.conf (d'oh)

Not all distributions install non-system binaries into /usr/bin. For
example, NixOS installs packages to /nix/store using a unique hash
generated from the inputs used to build it:
/nix/store/jld7jh3ilvbg91zvn1bdyawfc55b9jk8-polkit-0.118-bin/bin/pkexec
The function `pidfds_to_pids` expected `-1` if `open_fdinfo_dir` failed but the latter returned `errno` which is hard to distinguish from a valid file handle. Correct that by making `open_fdinfo_dir` a wrapper around `open`.
Before it was installed to /etc, but according the daemon/gamemode-config.c line 381 the shipped config should be in /usr/share/gamemode

Rename the pkg-config entry for libgamemodeauto, to it make it more that this will link against a library, compared to what the `gamemode` pkg-config does. This also removes the manual addition of the libdl dependency, this is done by Meson automatically.

This makes it more clear that libgamemode and libgamemodeauto are indeed libraries. Also, the misleading name `libgamemode_dep` has been renamed to `gamemode_dep`, which now also includes the dependency on libdl. The misleading `libgamemode_includes` variable name has also been changed.

Add a note for Nvidia hybrid graphics users, not having the opensource
nouveau driver, which can save them some time for searching the right
solution
