Using Linux, running kano-burners will fail if LANG isn't English or C.

Tried with Ubuntu 14.04 and LANG=de_DE.UTF-8

run_cmd parses the stdout output. However, on a system with
LANG=de_DE.utf8, some shell commands respond with translated text. An
example for this problem is KanoComputing/kano-burners#28.

Fix this by providing a new function with which you can choose the value
of LANG.

@rluz The idea of this one is that the commands are supposed to work if the LANG or LC_ALL environment variables are set to something other than English. it doesn't mean they have to show another language at this point, just that they don't stop working.
