John Ericson 6c861b9c51 Factor out lookupExecutable and other PATH improvments
This ended up motivating a good deal of other infra improvements in
order to get Windows right:

- `OsString` to complement `std::filesystem::path`

- env var code for working with the underlying `OsString`s

- Rename `PATHNG_LITERAL` to `OS_STR`

- `NativePathTrait` renamed to `OsPathTrait`, given a character template
  parameter until #9205 is complete.

Split `tests.cc` matching split of `util.{cc,hh}` last year.
