[MAPREDUCE-4386] Investigate possible abstractions for shell commands "bash -c" and "cmd /c"

Description

Currently, we have multiple files within the codebase that have if (WINDOWS) "cmd /c …" else "bash –c …". Instead, we should try to scope this down to only Shell.java and expose the needed functionality to other places. We might not be able to remove all such occurrences, but it looks like there is room for improvement (check the discussion on MAPREDUCE-4322).
