libglusterfs: add 'run' sub-lib for safe and convenient invocation of external programs
Summary:
- arguments first collected, then the invocation happens with fork + exec
- flexible specification of arguments (besides si{mp,ng}le argument
addition, support for adding multiple of them at a time / specifying one with
printf style formatting) [ ==> goodbye printf percentage soup when composing
commands ]
- single point of error check
- simple command runs are done in just one line
- support for redirection, popen(3) like functionality
API is documented in details in libglusterfs/src/run.h
