Subject: Changed FunctionExternalCommand stream read order * long outputs to
 stdout from child processes filled up the `boost::process::pistream` buffer
 and caused `write` to block ** this issue was circumvented by reading the
 stream into a `std::stringstream` instance before retrieving the blocking
 exit status * modified document import implementation accordingly
