Colin Walters 5b48dc40cc GSubprocess: New class for spawning child processes
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

Much rewriting and code review from Ryan Lortie <desrt@desrt.ca>
