diff: Fix pagination leak
* Drop an unnecessary variable and rename pidfd to procd. * Rewinding stdout serves no purpose, so stop doing it. * Don't bother freeing memory or setting the global status right before erroring out. * Error out if dup(2) or dup2(2) fail. * In the unlikely case that our pipe is equal to stdout, we need to record that information so we don't close it when cleaning up. * Don't bother closing a descriptor before dup2(2)ing to it. * Don't forget to close the the process descriptor after reaping the child process.
