```
client.Client.is_own(self) -> bool
```

Report whether this process opened this client itself.

tmux counts a control connection as an attached client, and this crate
opens them: [`crate::Pane::stream_output`],
[`crate::control::ControlMode::attach`] and the waits built on them all
show up in a client listing beside a human's terminal. A caller asking
"is anybody watching this session" means anybody *else*, so this is the
question to ask before counting.

`false` for every client once this process ends, since the answer is
about connections this `Server` is still holding open.

## Example

```rust
let others = server
    .clients()
    .await?
    .into_iter()
    .filter(|client| !client.is_own())
    .count();
```
