[lldb-dev] Host::RunShellCommand

I was thinking about how to best structure Host::RunShellCommand and
ProcessLaunchInfo::ConvertArgumentsForLaunchingInShell based on previous
discussions with greg.
One thing I don't understand is why we need this use_default_shell
argument. For starters, it seems like a better name for this argument
would be requires_shell_expansion. As in, you should pass true if your
command string might contain environment variables, commands stringed
together with &&, etc. And pass false otherwise.
Is there any reason to not just *always *run it in a shell? just delete
that argument to the function and let it always be true? It makes the code
simpler and I don't see what the advantage is to letting it be false. The
end result is still the same.
