unix: properly account for FDs passed over unix sockets
It is possible for a process to allocate and accumulate far more FDs than the process' limit by sending them over a unix socket then closing them to keep the process' fd count low. This change addresses this problem by keeping track of the number of FDs in flight per user and preventing non-privileged processes from having more FDs in flight than their configured FD limit.
