Teach run_command how to setup a stdin pipe

Browse Source 
Sometimes callers trying to use run_command to execute a child
process will want to setup a pipe or file descriptor to redirect
into the child's stdin.

This idea is completely stolen from builtin-bundle's fork_with_pipe,
written by Johannes Schindelin.  All credit (and blame) should lie
with Dscho.  ;-)
