//! Proc Connector Process Cache
//!
//! Caches PID -> (cmd, user) mapping from Linux proc connector exec events.
//! Solves the problem where short-lived processes (touch, rm, mv etc.)
//! cause /proc/{pid} to be unreadable when fanotify events arrive.
//!
//! Uses the safe `proc-connector` crate — no raw `libc` netlink FFI.
//!
//! # Architecture
//!
//! The `ProcConnector` is created and managed in `monitor.rs`, where its fd
//! is polled via tokio `AsyncFd` in the main event loop. Raw bytes read from
//! the fd are passed to [`handle_proc_events`] for parsing and caching.
//! No separate thread or polling needed.
