       seatd-launch  starts  a seatd instance with a dedicated socket path, waits for it to be ready, and starts
       the specified command with SEATD_SOCK set appropriately.  Once  the  specified  command  terminates,  the
       seatd instance is also terminated.

       seatd requires root privileges to perform its tasks. This can be achieved through SUID of seatd-launch or
       by  running  seatd-launch  as root. seatd-launch will drop privileges from the effective user to the real
       user before running the specified command. If the real user is root, this is simply a  noop.  You  should
       only run seatd-launch as root if you intend for the specified command to run as root as well.

       seatd-launch  serves  a  similar  purpose to the libseat "builtin" backend, but is superior to it for two
       reasons:
       1.   The specified command never runs as root
       2.   The standard seatd executable and libseat backend is used

       seatd-launch exits with the status of its child. When the child terminates on a  signal  N,  seatd-launch
       exits with the status 128 + N.

       If seatd-launch fails because of another error, it exits with a non-zero status.
