+ Execute a command and return stdin, stdout and the process return code.
+
+ args is a list of arguments for the command
+
+ stdin is used if you want to pass input to the command
+
+ raiseonerr raises an exception if the return code is not zero
+
+ nolog is a tuple of tuple values that describes things in the argument
+ list that shouldn't be logged, like passwords. Each tuple consists of
+ a value to search for in the argument list and an offset from this
+ location to set to XXX.
+
+ For example, the command ['/usr/bin/setpasswd', '--password', 'Secret123', 'someuser']
+
+ We don't want to log the password so nolog would be set to:
+ (('--password', 1),)
+
+ The resulting log output would be:
+
+ /usr/bin/setpasswd --password XXXXXXXX someuser
+
+ If an argument isn't found in the list it is silently ignored.
