Add option to include child processes in process collector #759

Description

@SuperQ

The NewProcessCollector currently only looks at one PID.

It would be useful to have a boolean flag that would allow aggregating some of the metrics. This would be useful for creating exporters for things that spawn un-privileged workers from a main PID.

For example, haproxy, postfix, apache, etc.

To be debated, how to handle the labels/aggregations here.
