…Harden the process calls to account for failure with_process_in was fairly brittle and would display stderr by default and ignore errors. The new version of that function (renamed process_in) now uses Unix.open_process_full and returns None if anything went wrong, fixing the issue on OpenBSD where `getconf LONG_BIT` would fail.
