Executes a child program asynchronously.
See glib.global.spawnAsyncWithPipes for a full description; this function simply calls the glib.global.spawnAsyncWithPipes without any pipes.
You should call glib.global.spawnClosePid on the returned child process reference when you don't need it any more.
If you are writing a GTK application, and the program you are spawning is a graphical application too, then to ensure that the spawned program opens its windows on the right screen, you may want to use #GdkAppLaunchContext, #GAppLaunchContext, or set the DISPLAY environment variable.
Note that the returned child_pid on Windows is a handle to the child process and not its identifier. Process handles and process identifiers are different concepts on Windows.
