// Command returns the Cmd struct to execute the named program with
// the given arguments.
//
// It sets only the Path and Args in the returned structure.
//
// If name contains no path separators, Command uses LookPath to
// resolve name to a complete path if possible. Otherwise it uses name
// directly as Path.
//
// The returned Cmd's Args field is constructed from the command name
// followed by the elements of arg, so arg should not include the
// command name itself. For example, Command("echo", "hello").
// Args[0] is always name, not the possibly resolved Path.
//
// On Windows, processes receive the whole command line as a single string
// and do their own parsing. Command combines and quotes Args into a command
// line string with an algorithm compatible with applications using
// CommandLineToArgvW (which is the most common way). Notable exceptions are
// msiexec.exe and cmd.exe (and thus, all batch files), which have a different
// unquoting algorithm. In these or other similar cases, you can do the
// quoting yourself and provide the full command line in SysProcAttr.CmdLine,
// leaving Args empty.
