sub-process: do not borrow cmd pointer from caller

Teach subprocess_start() to use a copy of the passed `cmd` string
rather than borrowing the buffer from the caller.

Some callers of subprocess_start() pass the value returned from
find_hook() which points to a static buffer and therefore is only
good until the next call to find_hook().  This could cause problems
for the long-running background processes managed by sub-process.c
where later calls to subprocess_find_entry() to get an existing
process will fail.  This could cause more than 1 long-running
process to be created.

TODO Need to confirm, but if only read_object_hook() uses
TODO subprocess_start() in this manner, we could drop this
TODO commit when we drop support for read_object_hook().
