A utility to read file IDs.

Modern file systems assign a unique ID to each file. On Linux and MacOS it is called an inode number, on Windows it is called file index. Together with the device id, a file can be identified uniquely on a device at a given time.

Keep in mind though, that IDs may be re-used at some point.

let file_id = file_id::get_file_id(path).unwrap();

println!("{file_id:?}");
