Add getcpu
Add

  #include <sched.h>

  int getcpu (unsigned int *cpu, unsigned int *node);

to return currently used CPU and NUMA node.

Tested on x86-64, x32 and i686 as well as with build-many-glibcs.py.

 Major new features:
 
+* The getcpu wrapper function has been added, which returns the currently
+  used CPU and NUMA node.  This function is Linux-specific.
+
 * A new convenience target has been added for distribution maintainers
   to build and install all locales as directories with files.  The new
   target is run by issuing the following command in your build tree:
