in short we want to add avmplus.Process in a cross-platform way

we can take high inspiration from the Chrome browser code, in /base they have 
implemented cross-platform processes in a nice way

this SubProcess is even more important when you think it's what we need to wrap 
external external command line tools control

eg. you can include ffmpeg headers in the runtime
it will make it harder and more comoplex to complie
the runtime will grow etc.

it's possible but not wanted

but if  you could just wrap the stdin/stdout/stderr around ffmpeg
and call it from AS3 code, then things get simpler and powerful

also, for redbean, as we plan to use it as compiler tool
and so reuse asc.jar but also maybe MXMLC COMPC etc.
we end up with the same use case

we need a very good subprocess control class
