[RFC][PATCH] rename 'struct pid'

I've been hacking quite a bit on the pidspace code.  I've run
into a bug or two, and had a heck of a time debugging it.
Other than my inferior puny monkey brain, I'm directing some
of the blame squarely in the direction of the 'struct pid'.

We have pid_t, pid_ns, struct pid and pid_link, at _least_.
Seeing code like get_pid(pid->pid_ns->pid_type[PIDTYPE_PID])
is mind-numbing to say the least.  It makes it really hard
to comprehend, and even harder to debug.

We honestly have a lot of code like this:

	pid = pid_nr(filp->f_owner.pid);

WTF?  It's getting a pid from a pid?  Huh? :)

It makes sense when you go look at the structures, but
sitting in the middle of a function and when you can't see
all of the struct declarations can be really sketchy.

So, I propose that we rename the one structure that seems to
be the focus of the problem: 'struct pid'.  Fundamentally, it
is a 'process identifier': it helps the kernel to identifty
processes.  However, as I noted, 'pid' is a wee bit overloaded.

In addition to "identifying" processes, this structure acts
as an indirection or handle to them.  So, I propse we call
these things 'struct task_ref'.  Just reading some of the
code that I've modified in here makes me feel like this is
the right way.

Compare the two sentences below:

Oh, I have a task_ref?  What kind is it?  Oh, it's a pgid
reference because I have REFTYPE_PGID.

Oh, I have a pid?  What kind is it?  Oh, it's a pid because
I have PIDTYPE_PID.

Which makes more sense?

So, this still needs some work converting some of the
function names, but it compiles as-is.  Any ideas for better
names?
