Always spawn commands via a shell, similar to xterm. This makes terminator -e "/bin/bash -c /usr/bin/python" work.

This also makes things like -e "cd $HOME && bash" work; the shell does it for us.  In this respect we are at least better than gnome-terminal.

This has the "disadvantage" that if you don't set $SHELL and don't have a known shell installed, your custom command will no longer save you.  Also if you have a $SHELL which doesn't support -c 'command', it breaks.  These users deserve their pain.

Resolves lp#247330, I think.
