Provide per-process getresuid() and getresgid() methods

This should reflect os.getresuid() [1] and os.getresgid() [2] Python functions 
but in a per-process fashion, and return a named tuple as such:

>>> p = psutil.Process(os.getpid)
>>> p.getresuid()
user(real=1000, effective=1000, saved=1000)
>>> p.getresgid()
group(real=1000, effective=1000, saved=1000)

This should be provided for UNIX systems only and raise AttributeError on Windows.

Not sure what to do with current "uid" and "gid" properties.
It probably makes sense to deprecate them.

Implemented on Linux in r835 .
I decided to provide this as "uids" and "gids" properties as they're easier to 
type/remember than "getresuid" and "getresgid".
