Description
The tests in the tests/ folder demonstrate the many ways to use the crate. However, the read and try_read examples read from the stdout of the child process. Is it possible to read from stderr? As you know, some programs write a considerable amount of output to stderr. Could you show an example of doing so or would the crate need modification?

Research direction
Start with the examples in the tests/ folder, especially the read and try_read cases, and trace how they access the child process output. Determine whether stderr can already be read through the crate's API or whether support is needed. Done means a working stderr example is added, or the required crate change is clearly identified and covered by a test.
