[Python-ideas] Expose Linux-specific APIs in resource module

[Giampaolo Rodolà]

>From "man getrlimit" we have 5 linux-specific constants which are
currently not exposed by resource module:

RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE
RLIMIT_NICE
RLIMIT_RTPRIO
RLIMIT_RTTIME
RLIMIT_SIGPENDING

Also, we have prlimit(), which is useful to get/set resources in a
per-process fashion based on process PID.
If desirable I can submit a patch for this.
