//! `ProxyCommand` spawn helper.
//!
//! Glues [`super::tokens::expand_proxy_tokens`] to a [`ChildStdio`]
//! constructor:
//!
//! 1. Expand `%h`/`%p`/`%r`/`%n`/`%%` against the connection-time values.
//! 2. Spawn the resulting command line via the platform shell
//!    (`sh -c` on Unix, `cmd /C` on Windows) so quoting, pipes, and
//!    redirections in the user's template work without us reimplementing
//!    a shell parser.
//! 3. Pipe stdin and stdout, capture both halves into a [`ChildStdio`]
//!    that callers feed to [`russh::client::connect_stream`].
//!
//! The single entry point is [`spawn_proxy_command`].
