[core] improve fork() on Windows

The Windows implementation of fork(), _fork_win32(), had some code to
try to allow commands like gitk to be executed.  However, this code did
not work for multiple reasons.  The main issue is that on Windows, gitk
is actually provided by a batch file named gitk.cmd.  If the first
element in the args list passed to subprocess.Popen() is simply "gitk",
the file won't be found and the command will fail.  This could be solved
by passing shell=True to Popen(), but that is not ideal.  The fix
provided here is to implement the same path searching algorithm that the
Windows shell uses to locate an executable, taking into account the
PATHEXT environment variable, and to use the result of that search as
the first element of the args list for subprocess.Popen().
