Currently, setprogname do nothing and getprogname returns a litteral string (name of the binary)

Todo:

  • char *progname;
  • setprogname(n) if(!progname) progname=n
  • getprogname() return progname

The pointer progname must point inside argv[0] to skip the path. So, getprogname return the basename

Check if setprogname is called at beginning of main() (because it's automatically done on NetBSD and programs may call getprogname without setprogname)

crtinit.c already includes program_invocation_name and program_invocation_short_name (set from argv[0])

We just have to add related functions
