(perl #133462) add specific test run instructions to README.win32
README.win32 provides generally standalone instructions for running
and testing perl, but unlike INSTALL didn't provide instructions
for repeating individual tests.
Both perlguts and INSTALL provide instructions on repeating individual
tests, and considering at the point a user want this information they
don't have a working perl installation, I think it's reasonable to
repeat it here.
