/**
 * NAME
 *     popen2 -- bidirectional popen()
 *
 * DESCRIPTION
 *     popen2(const char *command) opens two pipes, forks a child process,
 *     then binds the pipes to its stdin and stdout and execve shell to
 *     execute given command.
 *
 * RETURN VALUES:
 *     On success it returns a pointer to the struct with two fields
 *     { FILE *in; FILE *out; }. The struct should be released via pclose2()
 *     call. On failure returns NULL, check errno for more informaion about
 *     the error.
