wmmemload: Read memory correctly with Linux kernel version >= 3.14.

Browse source 
Beginning with Linux kernel version 3.14, a new MemAvailable line appears
in /proc/meminfo[1]. This caused wmmemload to look for Cached and Buffers one
line off of their correct location.  The problem was reported in [2].
