leaking_addresses: skip all /proc/PID except /proc/1
When the system is idle it is likely that most files under /proc/PID
will be identical for various processes. Scanning _all_ the PIDs under
/proc is unnecessary and implies that we are thoroughly scanning /proc.
This is _not_ the case because there may be ways userspace can trigger
creation of /proc files that leak addresses but were not present during
a scan. For these two reasons we should exclude all PID directories
under /proc except '1/'
Exclude all /proc/PID except /proc/1.
