This pull request adds a new method resolve() to the lang.CommandLine class which finds executables in the system path. This method supersedes lang.Process::resolve() which is therefore deprecated.

If the given name does not contain a ".", try [name].exe and [name].com for both of the following
If the given argument contains a "\" or "/", check whether a file by the given name exists
Otherwise, iterate over paths in %PATH% and check for qualified file names
Note: If you want to execute .bat files, you need to use cmd /c [file].bat in order for this to work!

If the name contains the directory separato char (typically "/"), check whether a file by the given name exists and has executable bit set
Otherwise, iterate over paths in $PATH and check for qualified file names
Note: The executable bit must be set effectively for the current user for a file to be regarded executable
