[lit] Support running tests on Windows without GnuWin32.
Historically, we have told contributors that GnuWin32 is a pre-requisite because our tests depend on utilities such as sed, grep, diff, and more. However, Git on Windows includes versions of these utilities in its installation. Furthermore, GnuWin32 has not been updated in many years. For these reasons, it makes sense to have the ability to run llvm tests in a way that is both: a) Easier on the user (less stuff to install) b) More up-to-date (The verions that ship with git are at least as new, if not newer, than the versions in GnuWin32. We add support for this here by attempting to detect where Git is installed using the Windows registry, confirming the existence of several common Unix tools, and then adding this location to lit's PATH environment.
