ref!: convert linux meminfo implementation to use procfs lib (#3049)

* ref!: convert linux meminfo implementation to use procfs lib

Part of #2957

Prometheus' procfs lib supports collecting memory info and we're using a
new enough version of the lib that has it available, so this converts
the meminfo collector for Linux to use data from procfs lib instead. The
bits I've touched for darwin/openbsd/netbsd are with intent to preserve
the original struct implementation/backwards compatibility.

* fix: meminfo debug log unsupported value

Fixes:

```
ts=2024-06-11T19:04:55.591Z caller=meminfo.go:44 level=debug collector=meminfo msg="Set node_mem" memInfo="unsupported value type"
```

* fix: don't coerce nil Meminfo entries to 0, leave out if nil

Nil entries in procfs.Meminfo fields indicate that the value isn't
present on the system. Coercing those nil values to `0` introduces new
metrics on systems that should not be present and can break some
queries.
