81d6f082f3 pkg/hooks/exec: Add a new package for local hook execution
This wraps os/exec to:

* Clear the environment when the hook doesn't set 'env'.  The runtime
  spec has [1]:

  > * env (array of strings, OPTIONAL) with the same semantics as IEEE
  >   Std 1003.1-2008's environ.

  And running execle or similar with NULL env results in an empty
  environment:

    $ cat test.c
    #include <unistd.h>

    int main()
    {
      return execle("/usr/bin/env", "env", NULL, NULL);
    }
    $ cc -o test test.c
    $ ./test
    ...no output...

  Go's Cmd.Env, on the other hand, has [2]:

  > If Env is nil, the new process uses the current process's environment.

  This commit works around that by setting []string{} in those cases
  to avoid leaking the runtime environment into the hooks.

* Roll the 'timeout' value (if set) into the passed context.  There's
  no need for two separate ways to cancel hook execution.

* Add a configurable timeout on abandoning a post-kill wait.  The
  waiting goroutine will continue and eventually reap the process, but
  this avoids blocking the Run() call when that takes inordinately
  long (for example, if a GPU cleanup hook is stuck in I/O sleep [3]).

The 'env' output format is specified in POSIX [4].
