With MSys1, it was necessary to set the TERM variable to "msys". To allow for a smooth transition from MSys1 to MSys2, let's simply handle TERM=msys as if the user had not specified TERM at all and wanted us to use our preferred TERM value.

strace is a Windows program so MSYS2 will convert all arguments and environment vars and that makes debugging msys2 software with strace very tricky.
We really must not run outside of the buffer. And the buffer needs to be NUL-terminated, too... Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

Instead of doing a poor man's realloc(), we can call the real thing ;-) Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
When the result of conversion is identical to the original argument, we should make sure that the temporary buffer was released. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

If we were to handle only single paths, the buffer really would only need to fit a single one, but arg_heuristic is also used to convert e.g. INFO_PATH and MAN_PATH (which can contain multiple absolute POSIX-style paths that need to be converted to Windows-style paths). This is only really relevant if the POSIX root directory's path is already pretty long. Such a beast has been spotted in the wild, in the Git for Windows project: git-for-windows/git#303 Of course, this patch is only a work-around that helps in many, but not all cases. Obviously this patch will wait patiently until a real fix comes around the corner, and then readily retire. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

This PR add support for directory junction creation as symlink.
Directory junction is supported since Win2k and do not require admin rights or UAC disable.
With new default symlink setting autotools' configure will use
ln -sfor symlinks instead ofcp -pRwhich can speedup a lot building in some situations.Note: Cygwin already is able to read junction, this PR add only support for creation.
