-------------------------+-------------------------
 #16004 + #14132 would be the better way to handle this since it allows
 doing this for more than torsocks, but as something that can happen in the
 mean time (or if the user doesn't want to use AF_UNIX based SOCKSSocket),
 there's no reason that torsocks can't do this automatically.

 Rough idea:
 {{{
    IsolatePid 0|1

      Automatically set the SOCKS5 username/password to a unique per-
 process value
      that makes the connections to Tor use a different circuit from other
 existing
      streams on a per-application basis.  If set, the SOCKS5Username and
      SOCKS5Password options must not be set. (Default: 0)
 }}}

 The implementation would stash the pid/`time(NULL)` on startup and use
 `pid:TIME` (both ASCII serialized) as the SOCKS5 username/password pair
 for all SOCKS connections.
