Summary
Add the ability to list out processes and their child process tree for Windows and Unix-based systems.
Details
While there exists a few different tools that can accomplish similar tasks (ex.
ps-tree,ps-list), these tools are missing some functionality. For example,ps-treeis able to return the child tree of a specific process ID, but is unable to list out all processes.ps-listcan list out all processes, but does not build a child tree. Additionally,ps-listis not bundlable due to it's dependency on thefastlistbinary on Windows.This PR brings all this functionality under the same method.
