Include unistd.h only on *NIX and define items as necessary on Windows,
also replace instances of ssize_t with the GLib-equivilant gssize so to fix
the build on platforms that do not have ssize_t, such as Visual C++.

There are a number of nice things this class brings:
0) Has a race-free termination API on all platforms (on UNIX, calls to
kill() and waitpid() are coordinated as not to cause problems).
1) Operates in terms of G{Input,Output}Stream, not file descriptors
2) Standard GIO-style async API for wait() with cancellation
3) Makes some simple cases easy, like synchronously spawning a
process with an argument list
4) Makes hard cases possible, like asynchronously running a process
with stdout/stderr merged, output directly to a file path
