I double read capget/capset man-pages and refer to kernel code.
pid = 0 that it indeed returns the the capabilities for the calling 
thread. I will add it.
Also, for capget syscall, it can get the  capabilities for any existed 
process. I think we should also test this by using child process in a 
new case like capset04.c.
