I don't think there are users of this yet, the ECS format expects CAP_FOO, so it makes no sense for us to have a different representation than that one.

As noted in #196, this likely never worked meaning we don't have users, the time for change is upon us. This avoids an extra 41*2 allocations for each root process in auditbeat as we would have to convert map the names ourselves.

Next step is adding the same to add_process_metadata

Implementation is pretty straightforward, go-sysinfo will parse
/proc/$PID/status and fill in CapabilityInfo.
