//! What:
//!  The processes of this host that use a directory or a file:
//!  a working directory or an open descriptor inside the directory,
//!  or an open descriptor on the file.
//! Why:
//!  Recovery may treat a directory or a lock as abandoned only when no process can still be using it.
//!  A process that holds a path open is the one proof of use that survives a lost record,
//!  so the scan reads it from `/proc` and says what it could not read instead of guessing.
//!  Only processes of the scanning account are reported as unreadable:
//!  another account's process cannot have opened a private file this account created,
//!  and every unprivileged scan meets some of them.
//!
//! In TS you'd write (pseudocode):
//! ```ts
//! const users = await processesUsing({ target: { inside: directory }, selfPid: process.pid });
//! ```
