The `args...` allow you to pass through file descriptors to the command, and are ordered
like regular unix file descriptors (eg `stdin, stdout, stderr, FD(3), FD(4)...`).

If `wait` is false, the process runs asynchronously. You can later wait for it and check
its exit status by calling `success` on the returned process object.

When `wait` is false, the process' I/O streams are directed to `devnull`.
When `wait` is true, I/O streams are shared with the parent process.
Use [`pipeline`](@ref) to control I/O redirection.
