Description

chrt - manipulate the real-time attributes of a process

chrt is on the wishlist in README.md and has no issue or open PR. I would like to take it.

I will follow chrt(1) for the option surface and the exit statuses, targeting the
util-linux 2.42 behavior.

Start with the chrt entry in README.md, then consult chrt(1) and util-linux 2.42 for the required option surface and exit statuses. Done means a Rust implementation of chrt matching that documented behavior, with the relevant command tests added or updated.
