Two new functions, the first is a 'heuristic parser' which examines a
string describing a set of cores and determines based off heuristics
whether its a coremask or a corelist.

Second is a 'combined parser' which calls the first function and then
based off the returned value will call the relevant core string parser.
This function also takes a 'default_type' int which corresponds to
which parser should be used in the case of an ambiguous string.

ids described
+ * in the "core_string". The string can either describe a corelist or a 
coremask, and
+ * will be parsed accordingly. The number of unique core ids in the string is 
then returned.
+ * For example:
+ * "1-4" is treated as a corelist and results in an array of [1,2,3,4] with 4 
being returned
+ * "0xA1" is treated as a coremask and results in an array of [0,5,7] with 3 
being returned

parameter to
+ * decide.
+ *
+ * NOTE: if the length of the input array is insufficient to hold the number 
of core ids
+ * in "core_string" the input array is filled to capacity but the return value 
is the
+ * number of elements which would have been written to the array, had enough 
space been
+ * available. [This is similar to the behaviour of the snprintf function]. 
Because of
+ * this, the number of core values in the "core_string" may be determined by 
calling the
+ * function with a NULL array pointer and array length given as 0.
+ *
+ * @param core_string
+ *   A string describing the intended cores to be parsed.
+ * @param cores
+ *   An array where to store the core ids.
+ *   Array can be NULL if "cores_len" is 0.
+ * @param cores_len
+ *   The length of the "cores" array.
+ *   If the size is smaller than that needed to hold all cores from 
"core_string"
+ * @param default_type
+ *   How to treat ambiguous cases (e.g. '4' could be mask or list).
+ *   0: mask.

array are valid.
