mod_measure_process: Report the enforced limit The soft limit is what the kernel actually enforces, while the hard limit is is how far you can change the soft limit without privileges. Unless the process dynamically adjusts the soft limit, knowing the hard limit is not as useful as knowing the soft limit. Reporting the soft limit and the number of in-use FDs allows placing alerts on expressions like 'process_open_fds / process_max_fds >= 0.95'

A module providing a streaming statistics interface like
[mod_statistics] but based on the new [statistics API][doc:statistics]
introduced in Prosody 0.10.

# Usage

To use, enable the built-in statistics like so:

```lua
statistics = "internal"
```

Then, in `modules_enabled`, replace `"statistics"` with
`"statistics_statsman"` and the various `"statistics_<something>"`
with equivalent `"measure_<something>"`.
