Add "cwd" and "root" symlinks to each process's directory. The cwd
link points to the process's current working directory, and the root link points to the process's root directory. What else would you expect? For directories that are out of reach (caller is in a chroot, target process is in a different chroot, etc), the links point to "/" instead.
