2023-01-03	Kernel: Add `sid` and `pgid` to `Credentials`	yyny
	There are places in the kernel that would like to have access to `pgid` credentials in certain circumstances. I haven't found any use cases for `sid` yet, but `sid` and `pgid` are both changed with `sys$setpgid`, so it seemed sensical to add it. In Linux, `man 7 credentials` also mentions both the session id and process group id, so this isn't unprecedented.
2022-08-21	Kernel: Make VirtualFileSystem functions take credentials as input	Andreas Kling
	Instead of getting credentials from Process::current(), we now require that they be provided as input to the various VFS functions. This ensures that an atomic set of credentials is used throughout an entire VFS operation.
2022-08-20	Kernel: Add Credentials to hold a set of user and group IDs	Andreas Kling
	This patch adds a new object to hold a Process's user credentials: - UID, EUID, SUID - GID, EGID, SGID, extra GIDs Credentials are immutable and child processes initially inherit the Credentials object from their parent. Whenever a process changes one or more of its user/group IDs, a new Credentials object is constructed. Any code that wants to inspect and act on a set of credentials can now do so without worrying about data races.
