/**
 * ProcessHandle identifies and provides control of native processes. Each
 * individual process can be monitored for liveness, list its children,
 * get information about the process or destroy it.
 * By comparison, {@link java.lang.Process Process} instances were started
 * by the current process and additionally provide access to the process
 * input, output, and error streams.
 * <p>
 * The native process ID is an identification number that the
 * operating system assigns to the process.
 * The range for process id values is dependent on the operating system.
 * For example, an embedded system might use a 16-bit value.
 * Status information about a process is retrieved from the native system
 * and may change asynchronously; processes may be created or terminate
 * spontaneously.
 * The time between when a process terminates and the process id
 * is reused for a new process is unpredictable.
 * Race conditions can exist between checking the status of a process and
 * acting upon it. When using ProcessHandles avoid assumptions
 * about the liveness or identity of the underlying process.
 * <p>
 * Each ProcessHandle identifies and allows control of a process in the native
 * system. ProcessHandles are returned from the factory methods {@link #current()},
 * {@link #of(long)},
 * {@link #children}, {@link #allChildren}, {@link #parent()} and
 * {@link #allProcesses()}.
 * <p>
 * The {@link Process} instances created by {@link ProcessBuilder} can be queried
 * for a ProcessHandle that provides information about the Process.
 * ProcessHandle references should not be freely distributed.
 *
 * <p>
 * A {@link java.util.concurrent.CompletableFuture} available from {@link #onExit}
 * can be used to wait for process termination, and possibly trigger dependent
 * actions.
 * <p>
 * The factory methods limit access to ProcessHandles using the
 * SecurityManager checking the {@link RuntimePermission RuntimePermission("manageProcess")}.
 * The ability to control processes is also restricted by the native system,
 * ProcessHandle provides no more access to, or control over, the native process
 * than would be allowed by a native application.
 *
 * @implSpec
 * In the case where ProcessHandles cannot be supported then the factory
 * methods must consistently throw {@link java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException}.
 * The methods of this class throw {@link java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException}
 * if the operating system does not allow access to query or kill a process.
