New utility: gamemodelist (#346)
* 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].

2ab46df4c3 Disable softrealtime (SCHED_ISO) and renice by default
SCHED_ISO is not supported by upstream kernels, so don't try to use this by
default since for most users it will result in an error log that trying to
set the scheduling policy fails.

Without extra system configuration, we will also not have permission to renice
processes by default, so out of the box doing this will fail as well.

Users that wish to use these features can enable them from the config once
they have configured their system appropriately.

74e26d6f63 Add "gamemoderun", a wrapper bash script like "primusrun"
This should remove a point of failure currently where users fail to set LD_PRELOAD correctly, or the path is wrong somehow.

	FWIW: The old method still works, and I've noted that in the README.
