Consider dropping execa

[frontsideair]

The project can have zero dependencies without execa, which has listed their benefits but maybe we don't need any of them? Test extensively.

Just my 2 cents, probably better to just keep execa, I don't think having zero deps is all that interesting. Claiming only 1 dependency is pretty good too

Agreed that it's not an urgency. But I gave the benefits a quick read and it doesn't seem like we would be missing out on anything if we dropped execa or cross-spawn. I need to do an investigation to be sure as I wouldn't want to leave Windows users behind for any reason.
