//! Link facility trait — how BIFs manage bidirectional process links.
//!
//! The link facility is an abstraction that allows link management BIFs
//! (link/1, unlink/1) to establish and remove bidirectional links without
//! direct access to the scheduler or process table. The scheduler provides
//! an implementation that uses its internal process management; tests can
//! provide mock implementations.

/// Error returned when a link operation fails.
