/// macOS libproc FFI bindings used to look up the local process that owns a
/// TCP socket and the executable path of a PID, without spawning child
/// processes.
///
/// Previously this functionality was implemented via
/// `Process.run('bash', ['-c', 'lsof -nP -iTCP:<port> ...'])` and
/// `Process.run('bash', ['-c', 'ps -p <pid> -o comm='])`, which were invoked
/// from the proxy request handling hot path. On macOS, Dart's `Process.run`
/// goes through `fork() + execvp()`; in a multi-threaded Dart VM, mutexes
/// held by other threads at fork time are cloned into the child with no
/// owner, so the child can deadlock before exec on `malloc`, libdispatch,
/// or Objective-C runtime locks. Such children stay alive forever, inherit
/// every fd of the parent (including the listening proxy socket), and pin
/// the bound port even after the parent exits. See issue #763 for repro
/// and full root-cause analysis.
///
/// libproc syscalls are pure system calls with no process spawning, so they
/// avoid the fork problem entirely and are about an order of magnitude
/// faster than spawning `lsof` per request.
///
/// Field offsets within `struct socket_fdinfo` were extracted via a small
/// C probe against `<sys/proc_info.h>` on macOS SDK 14+. The struct has
/// been ABI-stable since macOS 10.7; defensive checks verify the returned
/// size before reading offsets so a hypothetical layout change in a future
/// macOS release surfaces as a null return instead of memory corruption.
