Description

In other words, start the process with subprocess.Popen(..., cwd=self.args.mountpoint). This would let users DRY up their commands, and not have to write the mount point as an argument to both arv-mount and the --exec.

IMO this should be the default behavior, but if we feel like that would be a backwards compatibility break, a flag to do it like --chdir would be fine too.
