win32: Add better documentation for Windows users
Generalize the `cola` shell script so that it can be used with any python installation. We allow users to configure the path to `pythonw.exe` instead of the last-resort option of editing the `cola` shell script. Signed-off-by: David Aguilar <davvid@gmail.com>

Windows Tips | ||
============ | ||
* git-cola is tested on msysgit | ||
* Other git environments should work fine as long as `git` | ||
can be found in the $PATH. | ||
* The provided `cola` shell script can be used to launch *git-cola* | ||
if you do not want to keep `pythonw.exe` in your $PATH. | ||
* If your python is installed in a location other than `/c/Python*/` | ||
then you can tell the `cola` script about it by setting the | ||
`cola.pythonlocation` git configuration variable. e.g.: | ||
$ git config --global cola.pythonlocation "/c/Program Files/Python27/pythonw.exe" |
