None of the shell primitives in std.process allocate a TTY, making it sometimes difficult to automate some applications or to implement a terminal emulator.

Potential API solutions:

1.  Add Redirect.TTY: when set, use forkpty() instead of fork() in the existing
pipeProcess()/pipeShell().
2.  Add pipeTTY().

forkpty() is a BSD function, not a standard POSIX function, so I don't see how this can be done in a cross-platform manner.
