Run the command in a subshell, so that `exit` or `exec` cannot prevent the report

Capture the subshell's output, and hide cronic's state and `set -u` from the command

Merge remote-tracking branch 'upstream/master' into cronic-subshell

Run the command in a fresh bash process, so that it sees none of cronic's state

Hide cronic's `set -u` from the command even when the caller exports SHELLOPTS; document that the command sees exported functions
