Teach sys:get_status/1,2 to call Mod:format_status/2
Restore the ability for gen_server and gen_fsm callback
modules to format their own state for display under the
sys:get_status/1,2 calls.
This ability is extremely useful for new behavior modules
based on gen_server or gen_fsm, so that they can display
their status in a more meaningful way than just dumping
the state record. It is also generally useful for applications
wanting to display their gen_server or gen_fsm callback module
state in something other than the default manner.
Also document the previously undocumented the
gen_server:format_status/2 and gen_fsm:format_status/2 optional
callback functions that, if exported by the callback module, are
invoked when sys:get_status/1,2 are called.
Add unit tests to ensure that format_status/2 functions exported
from a gen_fsm callback module and a gen_server callback module
are called when sys:get_status/1,2 are called.
