On windows a path cannot be represented as a file:// URL because of the backslashes and colons in the file name. This causes all of the tests which rely on git to fail on windows. This commit changes the representation of the location of a package to be an enum, Location, with two variants: Remote and Local. When parsing Cargo.toml, all locations which begin with the string "file:" have that prefix stripped and are then interpreted as Local packages. Everything else is parsed as a URL and used as a Remote package.
The windows terminal does not use terminfo and is much different, so these tests will fail on windows or actually write to the console.
Apparently git checkouts have objects in the database with permissions 444 which need to be changed to something with a write permission before removal.
This is the same as the libstd Command builder, and will soon be used in the tests for spawning processes on windows.
* Add a convenience method bin() for generating the name of a binary. On windows this remembers to append `.exe`. * Stop executing relative paths to binaries and relying on PATH. This is suffering from rust-lang/rust#15149 and failing to spawn processes on windows. Additionally, this allows the tests to work with a pre-installed cargo becuase the freshly built executables are precisely specified. * A new function, escape_path(), was added for tests. When generated source files with paths, this function needs to be called to properly escape the \-character that appears in windows path names. Without this function we would be generating invalid TOML and rust.
Windows occasionally has \r\n while everywhere else has \n. Instead of worrying about the difference, just replace all instances of \r with nothing and rely on matching against \n.

This brings cargo up to date in all aspects with respect to windows.
The commits have all the nitty-gritty details. There were two assumptions which ended up having far reaching impact:
file://urls could be used for local git repos. This was too difficult with\characters in filenames.Closes #32
