a181ea8fbe bin: replace double backticks (``) with $()
This has been the recommended way of launching subshells for ages, and is easier
to type and on the eye.

0a86024797 startup scripts: get rid of $* and replace it with properly quoted "$@"
In shell scripts an unquoted $* is rarely useful, for example because it breaks
in presence of file names with spaces.

References:
- https://google.github.io/styleguide/shell.xml
  Use "$@" unless you have a specific reason to use $*.

- https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/41571/what-is-the-difference-between-and#94200
  Short answer: use "$@" (note the double quotes). The other forms are very
  rarely useful.

843b05a6ec Use exec to switch to node process
At the end of run, `exec` should be used to switch to the node process.  That way node will take over the pid of `sh run.sh`, making it easier to monitor and daemonize the server. 

```
    exec [command [arg ...]]
             Unless command is omitted, the shell process is replaced with the
             specified program (which must be a real program, not a shell
             built-in command or function).  Any redirections on the exec com-
             mand are marked as permanent, so that they are not undone when
             the exec command finishes.
```

376fccfe92 bugfix for correct bash syntax
