I realise weʼve renamed this one already, but would it not make more
sense for the variable to be called something starting with
'process-', such as 'process-fast-read-output'? Thatʼs in line with
other variables affecting the processes process data, such as
`process-adaptive-read-buffering'.

The idea behind this name was to match one specific C function (which might be familiar to many who read Emacs's code), but I don't have a strong opinion either way. process-read-output-fast, maybe?

Also note that both previous names have been already mentioned in bug#71452 comments, so I suppose the new one should be mentioned too, in order to avoid keeping an outdated source on that subject.
