Redirect standard descriptors for hook/notify commands

Disconnect stdin, stdout and stderr when running an external hook or
notification command. The previous solution of appending "<&- >&- 2>&-"
to the shell command line does not work if the command includes pipes.

Use shell_exec() in notify_launch_cmd() instead of a custom (and
incomplete) reimplementation of that command.

Partially addresses GitHub issue #326.
