Add the process field to struct userdiff_driver and teach the config parser to populate it from diff.<driver>.process. The field names a long-running hunk provider process. Nothing reads it yet: the consult, the protocol, and the documentation arrive with the next commit, which starts and pools processes keyed by this field's command string.
