execv_dashed_external: use child_process struct

When we run a dashed external, we use the one-liner
run_command_v_opt() to do so. Let's switch to using a
child_process struct, which has two advantages:

  1. We can drop all of the allocation and cleanup code for
     building our custom argv array, and just rely on the
     builtin argv_array (at the minor cost of doing a few
     extra mallocs).

  2. We have access to the complete range of child_process
     options, not just the ones that the "_opt()" form can
     forward.
