call _init() in modules at init time. closes #1268
Tweaks for cross compiling from Cygwin to MinGW

* Cygwin versions of MinGW compilers put standard libraries in /bin, not /lib
* Blas and Lapack should be in build_shlibdir
* Don't use wine for Cygwin to MinGW cross compile
* New cygpath_w helper function to convert Cygwin paths to Windows-style so MinGW-compiled
executables can understand them
* Use cygpath_w for system image file locations
Merge branch 'master' of github.com:JuliaLang/julia into jb/module_init
rename _init to __init__
better module initialization order: init inner modules after outer modules
are complete and initialized.

RFC: Allow Cygwin to MinGW cross compilation
Redirect stderr from which

This avoids `which: no fetch in ($PATH)` messages when downloading dependencies. These can get pretty long.
Add quotes and an informative error message

Alternative fix for #3567

As discussed in #5825, this puts handles that should be preserved into a global ObjectIdDict. The only slightly sketchy parts are the idle and async worker invocations which I'll have to think about (we don't have a good interface for them yet, really), but it's not as simple as just putting a wait() based interface on top, since people are using them for synchronization with threaded C libraries.

Fix two small bugs in process handling with new libuv.

First, I forgot the finalizer (my bad). The second issue is slightly
more subtle which is that we now destroy process objects earlier, so
libuv might actually get a SIGCHLD. We have a custom patch that
disables signals while in fork, which also happended to block SIGCHLD
because it was in the wrong place. The associated libuv commit fixes
that.
