Struct LimitedProcessOutput 

pub struct LimitedProcessOutput {
    pub output: Output,
    pub completeness: OutputCompleteness,
}

Wait for a child process with output-size and time limits. Kills the process if either limit is exceeded, returning what was captured so far. Prevents unbounded memory growth on commands that produce massive output (e.g. rg -i "pattern" over a large tree).

kill_group (Unix): the child was spawned into its own process group (process_group(0)), so a timeout kill signals the whole group. Killing only the direct child (a shell) leaves orphaned grandchildren holding the stdout/stderr pipe write ends — the reader threads then never see EOF and the join below blocks forever, wedging the caller despite the timeout having fired (GH #720: an orphaned rg kept a Cursor shell session dead for hours).
