[issue11003] os.system should be deprecated in favour of subprocess module

[Skip Montanaro]

Eric> Note that os.popen is implemented with subprocess.

That seems somewhat wrong to me.  There is a stdio popen function which
os.popen used to expose.  I thought that was the goal (thin wrapper around
many library functions, then build higher level stuff on that).
