LSCGROUP 💅 (1) — the libcgroup manual, but make it cute

okay bestie, so lscgroup is that girl from the libcgroup Manual, section 1, and she does exactly one thing and she does it flawlessly:

---

✨ NAME ✨

lscgroup — list all cgroups 💖

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

lscgroup [[-g] <controllers>:<path>] [...]
lscgroup [-h|--help]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

List all/chosen cgroups. Like, the whole roster. Every cgroup in the building, or just the ones you asked for. 👑

• <controllers>:<path> — this lil parameter is literally telling the tool which control groups' subgroups you wanna see. If you don't pass it? She's showing you all existing cgroups, no filter, no cap. 💅

---

🌸 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES 🌸

• CGROUP_LOGLEVEL — this one controls how chatty the tool is. Allowed values are DEBUG, INFO, WARNING or ERROR. So like, pick your volume. 🎀
