// scopes or under per-user `systemd --user` instances.
//
// To avoid false positives on systems without `pam_systemd` (which is
// responsible for creating user sessions), this function also uses a heuristic
// to detect whether it's being invoked from a session leader process. This is
// the case if the current process is executed directly from a service file
// (e.g. with `ExecStart=/this/cmd`). Note that this heuristic will fail if the
// command is instead launched in a subshell or similar so that it is not
// session leader (e.g. `ExecStart=/bin/bash -c "/this/cmd"`)

// This function is a wrapper around the libsystemd C library; if this is
// unable to successfully open a handle to the library for any reason (e.g. it
// cannot be found), an error will be returned.
