jade 1437d3df15 darwin: workaround PROC_PIDLISTFDS on processes with no fds
This has been causing various seemingly spurious CI failures as well as
some failures on people running tests on beta builds.

lix> ++(nix-collect-garbage-dry-run.sh:20) nix-store --gc --print-dead
lix> ++(nix-collect-garbage-dry-run.sh:20) wc -l
lix> finding garbage collector roots...
lix> error: Listing pid 87261 file descriptors: Undefined error: 0

There is no real way to write a proper test for this, other than to
start a process like the following:

int main(void) {
    for (int i = 0; i < 1000; ++i) {
        close(i);
    }
    sleep(10000);
}

and then let Lix's gc look at it.

I have a relatively high confidence this *will* fix the problem since I
have manually confirmed the behaviour of the libproc call is
as-unexpected, and it would perfectly explain the observed symptom.
