Implement DIR* cloning on Windows
There doesn't seem to be a mechanism to clone FileFind handles on Windows. Therefore this implementation just reads all remaining entries into a cache buffer and closes the handle. All further readdir() requests will be fulfilled from the cache buffer, in both the original and the new interpreter. This fixes bug 75154 on Windows (all tests in t/op/threads-dirh.t pass). This commit also changes the return value of win32_telldir() to -1 for directory handles that have been read until the end. The previous return value was (NULL - dirp->start), which technically is not valid C code. API change alert: Perl_dirp_dup() gets an additional CLONE_PARAMS parameter in this change (like all the other Perl_*_dup() functions).
