RFR - JDK-8141209 $EXEC should allow streaming of output

[Michael Haupt]

Hi Jim,

tested on Mac, Windows (Cygwin), Linux. Lower-case thumbs up, with one remark:

** ScriptingFunctions.java **

In the exec() method, I'd really like to have a check to make sure no illegal argument combination goes unnoticed. If arguments are passed that do not conform to any of the four forms, there should be an error message.

Best,

Michael
