Just to be clear, this project doesn't *do* anything right?  Like it won't
parse `/proc/cpuinfo` and actually figure out a machines cpu flags that can
then be broadcast as "capabilities"?

Like, TBH I think it took me longer than I would prefer to honestly admit
to find out about /sys/block/<device>/queue/rotational [1]

So if there was a library about standardizing how hardware capabilities are
discovered and reported - that maybe seems like a sane sort of thing for a
collection of related projects to agree on.  But I'm not sure if this does
that?
