proc.5: Clean up after making sashimi of this page
- Remove outdated comments (they're on git, so it's not worth moving them to the appropriate pages). - Relicense with GPL-3.0-or-later, and add myself to copyleft. - Remove now-empty "Files and directories" subsection. - Remove now-irrelevant note about the page being a monster, which it is not anymore. Signed-off-by: Alejandro Colomar <alx@kernel.org>
