Add gproc:monitor(Name, Type) -> Ref, where Type :: info | standby | follow
gproc:monitor(Name, info) is equivalent to gproc:monitor(Key).
Using standby, the registered name is inherited by the monitoring process (the first in line) if the previous owner dies. Value and properties (including monitors) are also inherited, but monitors do not survive an explicit unreg().
gproc:monitor(Name, follow) reports the same events as info, but also registered, as the monitor survives unregistrations, and can also be set before Name is registered.
