Add pidofproc to ${sysconfdir}/init.d/functions
Add pidofproc to ${sysconfdir}/init.d/functions, this is used for getting the pid of the process. It uses pidof to implement currently, it may also use the pidfile or ps to implement in the future. Signed-off-by: Robert Yang <liezhi.yang@windriver.com>
