convert manual allocations to argv_array
There are many manual argv allocations that predate the argv_array API. Switching to that API brings a few advantages: 1. We no longer have to manually compute the correct final array size (so it's one less thing we can screw up). 2. In many cases we had to make a separate pass to count, then allocate, then fill in the array. Now we can do it in one pass, making the code shorter and easier to follow. 3. argv_array handles memory ownership for us, making it more obvious when things should be free()d and and when not. Most of these cases are pretty straightforward. In some, we switch from "run_command_v" to "run_command" which lets us directly use the argv_array embedded in "struct child_process".
