depends on problematic crate nc #397

Description

@jonassmedegaard

Since #229 alumet has grown a dependency on crate nc.

That crate is rather big, and attemtping to run its testsuite triggered rebooting of my development system. The crate is maintained by one person, and seemingly contains a lot of unsafe code.

It seems nc is used only for one function call, nc::pidfd_open, which as I understand it is also implemented in more common libraries nix and rustix.

Please consider switching to a more common crate for this functionality.
