Johannes Schindelin 0ec978380d tests: use the correct path separator with BusyBox ...

BusyBox-w32 is a true Win32 application, i.e. it does not come with a
POSIX emulation layer.

That also means that it does *not* use the Unix convention of separating
the entries in the PATH variable using colons, but semicolons.

However, there are also BusyBox ports to Windows which use a POSIX
emulation layer such as Cygwin's or MSYS2's runtime, i.e. using colons
as PATH separators.

As a tell-tale, let's use the presence of semicolons in the PATH
variable: on Unix, it is highly unlikely that it contains semicolons,
and on Windows (without POSIX emulation), it is virtually guaranteed, as
everybody should have both $SYSTEMROOT and $SYSTEMROOT/system32 in their
PATH.
