See the bug for rationale. 

This goal for this improvement is to be easily backportable, so we can catch up with update releases. As such, it does a few borderline-trivial changes, and _does not_ change the jspawnhelper protocol. So the overwrite of `jspawnhelper` with this new version would be "compatible" in a very weak sense of the word.

Additional testing:
 - [x] Linux x86_64 server fastdebug, `java/lang/ProcessBuilder`
