wine: Try to get the short paths when generating WINEPATH

The size of WINEPATH is limited (1024 [until recently]), we
can very easily reach that limit, and even the new one (2048) so
try to keep path as small as possible by using the shortPath
version of paths.

Also assert that we do not reach the new hard limit.

And avoid having duplicates in the list of path.
