Changes

Use a single psutil.Process to verify the process still exists, and extend it with better support for threads using psutil.Process to retrieve their information.

Reason

The previous fix didn't work because the read can also return ProcessLookupError. There is also the issue of pid recycling.

Testing

Example:

The previous fix didn't work because the read can also return
ProcessLookupError. There is also the issue of pid recycling.

For this reason, use a single psutil.Process to verify the process still
exists, and catch any exception just in case.
