pyproc: Go Library for Calling Python via Unix Domain Socket IPC Without CGO or Microservices

Fresh out the oven, still warm. Top of the tray.
Summary
pyproc is a Go library that enables calling Python code directly from Go applications using Unix domain socket-based IPC, eliminating the need for CGO bindings or microservices. It solves the problem of integrating Python (particularly for ML inference and data processing) with Go services by providing a high-performance, low-latency solution that avoids the complexity of CGO, network overhead of microservices, and startup costs of shell execution.
