Implement `memfd` as shared memory concept #115

Open elfenpiff opened 4 months ago

Brief feature description

The linux call memfd has the ability to seal memory files, meaning making them immutable for the rest of their lifetime. Choosing them in a shared memory concept could solve data races that can occur in IPC communication.
