Integrate change #12747 from maintperl;
finishing touches to system() fixes on windows:
* detect cmd shell correctly even if it had full path in it
* more quoting needed for single-arg system if the argument
really had multiple quoted arguments within it
* be smarter about not calling the shell when the executable
has spaces, but otherwise does not need shell involvement
* add a testsuite (windows-specific currently)
