Move the ps and sysctl tools into its own package. Useful for
size constrained systems that only want the ps and/or sysctl tools.

Both of these are part of busybox. If you're in massively size
constrained systems, why not just use busybox?

That's true. I needed more functionality for these two specific tools.
The rest is all busybox as you suggested.
To be fair, ps in busybox really sucks IMO.
