procutil: import concerns about creationflags on Windows from D1701 I don't have the need anymore for the change in D1701 nor the time to investigate the changes on all supported Windows platforms. I import the stuff I learned on D1701 in the `runbgcommand` so the next people working on it can starts from there. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D5229
