        Only allow users with group 'proc' to retrieve systemd unit information like
        cgroup paths (i.e. (sub)process command lines) via D-Bus.

        This mitigates a systemd security issue where (sub)process command lines can
        be retrieved by services even when their access to /proc is restricted
        (via ProtectProc).

        This option works by restricting the D-Bus method 'GetUnitProcesses', which
        is also used internally by `systemctl status`.
