docs: update the development process document
Here's a set of changes updating Documentation/development-process. I have update kernel releases and relevant statistics, added information for a couple of tools, zapped some trailing white space, and generally tried to make it more closely match the current state of affairs.

|

The Linux kernel, at over 6 million lines of code and well over 1000 active
|
||||
contributors, is one of the largest and most active free software projects
|
||||
in existence. Since its humble beginning in 1991, this kernel has evolved
|
||||
into a best-of-breed operating system component which runs on pocket-sized
|
||||
digital music players, desktop PCs, the largest supercomputers in
|
||||
existence, and all types of systems in between. It is a robust, efficient,
|
||||
and scalable solution for almost any situation.
