Linux uses /proc/self/fd/*.

I thought about two alternatives.  One would be to extend the current
"-" for standard input so that:

-   is standard input
-0  is standard input as well
-5  is fd 5

and so on.  But I think this is a bit counterintuitive, so I think my
personal preference would be for the --input-fd option.
