+Retrieves (or at least attempts to retrieve) the total number of real CPU cores
+installed in a Linux system.
+
+The issue of core count is complicated by existence of SMT, e.g. Intel's Hyper Threading.
+GNU nproc returns the number of LOGICAL cores,
+which is 2x of the real cores if SMT is enabled.
+
+The idea is to find all physical CPUs and add up their core counts.
+It has special cases for x86_64 and MAY work correctly on other architectures,
+but nothing is certain.
