This fixes #15355

This is not yet including the optimization for single-arg system() that doesn't contain metacharacter. I should probably add that before undrafting this.

It also doesn't include Configure probes for detecting if the platform supports posix_spawn, partly because I haven't looked into how to write that, but also because that may be a contentious change and we're quite close to that deadline: it may be a better change for 5.37.1
