   * Launches a process, and returns a handle to it.
   *
   * @param {object} options
   * An object describing the process to launch.
   *
   * @param {string} options.command
   * The full path of the execuable to launch. Relative paths are not
   * accepted, and `$PATH` is not searched.
   *
   * If a path search is necessary, the {@link Subprocess.pathSearch} method may
   * be used to map a bare executable name to a full path.
   *
   * @param {string[]} [options.arguments]
   * A list of strings to pass as arguments to the process.
   *
   * @param {object} [options.environment]
   * An object containing a key and value for each environment variable
   * to pass to the process. Only the object's own, enumerable properties
   * are added to the environment.
   *
   * @param {boolean} [options.environmentAppend]
   * If true, append the environment variables passed in `environment` to
   * the existing set of environment variables. Otherwise, the values in
   * 'environment' constitute the entire set of environment variables
   * passed to the new process.
   *
   * @param {string} [options.stderr]
   * Defines how the process's stderr output is handled. One of:
   *
   * - `"ignore"`: (default) The process's standard error is not redirected.
   * - `"stdout"`: The process's stderr is merged with its stdout.
   * - `"pipe"`: The process's stderr is redirected to a pipe, which can be read
   *   from via its `stderr` property.
   *
   * @param {string} [options.workdir]
   *        The working directory in which to launch the new process.
   *
   * @returns {Promise<Process>}
   *
   * @rejects {Error}
   * May be rejected with an Error object if the process can not be
   * launched. The object will include an `errorCode` property with
   * one of the following values if it was rejected for the
   * corresponding reason:
   *
   * - Subprocess.ERROR_BAD_EXECUTABLE: The given command could not
   *   be found, or the file that it references is not executable.
   *
   * Note that if the process is successfully launched, but exits with
   * a non-zero exit code, the promise will still resolve successfully.
