The number of open file descriptors reported by lsof is unreliable
because it depends on whether the parent process (the test) closed
the file descriptors it passed into the child process (lsof) before
lsof runs.
Reading /proc/self/fd directly on Linux appears to be much more
reliable and still detects any file descriptor leaks originating
from attempting to run an executable that cannot be found (issue
#5071). If /proc/self/fd is not available (e.g. on Darwin) then we
fall back to lsof and tolerate small differences in open file
descriptor counts.
Fixes #19243.
