The `'spawn'` event is emitted once the child process has spawned successfully.
If the child process does not spawn successfully, the `'spawn'` event is not
emitted and the `'error'` event is emitted instead.

If emitted, the `'spawn'` event comes before all other events and before any
data is received via `stdout` or `stderr`.
