proc_set_cred(): Allow 'newcred' to have multiple references
This is an extension needed by next commit, where some additional
reference is kept on the credentials to be set on a process in order to
keep these credentials alive even after the process lock is released (an
intervening reset of process credentials could release the reference
that the process holds).
Only 'cr_users' is incremented, as the reference (counted in 'cr_ref')
comes from the caller, who passes it to the process.
