I understand your concerns, but the change just extends the number of
cases when file descriptors are decoded.  I agree that path resolution,
socket resolution etc. worth an extra -y option, but this patch doesn't
change the way how file descriptors are decoded.  That is, I'd rather add
this extension for single -y option.

btw, please note that we use tprints instead of tprintf when the argument
is not a format string.
