//! Functions returning the stdio file descriptors.
//!
//! # Safety
//!
//! These access the file descriptors by absolute index value, and nothing
//! prevents them from being closed and reused. They should only be used in
//! `main` or other situations where one is in control of the process'
//! stdio streams.
