Spawns a new Node process that runs the bin file of a given package.

## API

### `spawnBin(bin, args, [opts])`

Same as API as [child_process.spawnSync](https://nodejs.org/api/child_process.html#child_process_child_process_spawnsync_command_args_options) with `bin` being [resolved](https://www.npmjs.com/package/resolve-bin) first.

If the name of the executable does not equal the package name you can use the format `:`:

```js

spawnBin('flow-bin:flow', ['.']);

```

__Note:__ The `stdio` option is set to `'inherit'` by default.
