💡 What

Replaced static chunking in ProcessMemoryScanner.scanPIDs with a sliding window approach.

🎯 Why

In Swift structured concurrency, static chunking inside a withTaskGroup (waiting for an entire batch to finish before starting the next) introduces tail latency. If one task in the chunk takes longer, no new tasks are started until it finishes. A sliding window with an iterator maintains the maximum concurrent execution limit continuously.

📊 Impact

Improves throughput for process scanning by eliminating idle waiting periods, ensuring that exactly maxConcurrency tasks are running as long as there are PIDs left to process.

🔬 Measurement

Run ProcessMemoryScanner.scan on a system with a large number of processes and observe the total execution time, which should be lower and more consistent.

Replaced the static chunking in `ProcessMemoryScanner.scanPIDs` with a sliding window approach using an iterator inside `withTaskGroup`. This continuous task spawning prevents tail latency and maximizes throughput.
