Spawn merges in subprocesses to prevent bleeding locks.
If emerge forgets to release a lock (for example, due to
an error), we should make sure to release it. To ensure
this, I've moved the merge into a subprocess and made
sure we close all open file handles. I've also switched
over to using the Portage _setup_pipes function to setup
stdin, stdout, and stderr instead of mucking with them
by hand.
