/// to the maximum file descriptor number that can be opened by the process (aka the maximum number
/// of file descriptors that the process can open, since Linux 4.5).
///
/// We first fetch the existing file descriptor maximum values using getrlimit(), then edit the
/// soft limit to make sure it has a new and distinct value to the hard limit. We then setrlimit()
/// to put the new soft limit in effect, and then getrlimit() once more to ensure the limits have
/// been updated.
