Part of me thinks you shouldn't have to specify environment in

with the overloads. I know File is a struct, so it shouldn't
bind to null, right?
No, there won't be any problem with adding overloads with and
without environment, but then there'll be six spawnProcess()
versions. We have to weigh that against the user having to
explicitly specify a null when they don't want to add to the
environment, but still want redirects. [...]
We could switch them around, though, and put the environment
after the redirects:
spawnProcess(args, stdin, stdout, stderr, env, config)
spawnProcess(args, env, config)
spawnProcess(prog, stdin, stdout, stderr, env, config)
spawnProcess(prog, env, config)
I didn't specify any default values there, but every parameter
would have a default except the first one.
