1c6c4d112e proc: use human-readable values for hidepid
The hidepid parameter values are becoming more and more and it becomes
difficult to remember what each new magic number means.

Backward compatibility is preserved since it is possible to specify
numerical value for the hidepid parameter. This does not break the
fsconfig since it is not possible to specify a numerical value through
it. All numeric values are converted to a string. The type
FSCONFIG_SET_BINARY cannot be used to indicate a numerical value.

Selftest has been added to verify this behavior.

c33e97efa9 docs: filesystems: convert proc.txt to ReST
This document has a nice format! Unfortunately, not exactly
ReST. So, several adjustments were required:

- Add a SPDX header;
- Adjust document and section titles;
- Whitespace fixes and new line breaks;
- Mark literal blocks as such;
- Add table markups;
- Add table captions;
- Add it to filesystems/index.rst.
