Fix the heading and Size/Used/Priority field alignments in
/proc/swaps. If the Size and/or Used value is >= 10000000 (8 bytes),
then the alignment by using tab characters is broken.

This patch maintains the use of tabs for alignment. If spaces
are preferred, we can just use a Field Width specifier for the
bytes and inuse fields. That way those fields don't have to be
a multiple of 8 bytes in width. E.g., with a field width of 12,
both Size and Used would always fit on the first line of an
80-column wide terminal (only Priority would be on the second line).

There are actually 2 problems: heading alignment and field width.
On an xterm, if Used is 7 bytes in length, the tab does nothing, and
the display is like this, with no space/tab between the Used and
Priority fields. (ugh)

Filename                                Type            Size    Used    Priority
/dev/sda8                               partition       16779260

To be clear, if one does 'cat /proc/swaps >/tmp/proc.swaps', it does
look different, like so:

Filename                                Type            Size    Used    Priority
/dev/sda8                               partition       16779260        2086988
