Get the list of children and grandchildren pids of the given PID.
@param  {Number|String} PID A PID. If -1 will return all the pids.
@param  {Object} [options] Optional options object.
@param  {Boolean} [options.root=false] Include the provided PID in the list.
@param  {Boolean} [options.advanced=false] Returns a list of objects in the
format {pid: X, ppid: Y}.
@param  {Function} callback(err, list) Called when the list is ready.
