Windows: Improve handling of shebang in external special remote program, searching for the program in the PATH.
findShellCommand needs a full path to a file in order to check it for a shebang on Windows. It was being run with only the base name of the external special remote program, which would only work when it was in the current directory. This is why users in https://github.com/DanielDent/git-annex-remote-rclone/pull/10 and elsewhere were complaining that the previous improvements to git-annex didn't make git-remote-rclone work on Windows. Also, reworked checkearlytermination, which while it worked, seemed to rely on a race condition. And, improved its error messages. This commit was sponsored by Shane-o on Patreon.

### Have you had any luck using git-annex before? (Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders)
Oh yeah! This software is awesome. After getting used to having "dummy" shortcuts to content I don't currently have, with the simple ability to get/drop that content, I can't believe I haven't seen this anywhere before. If there is anything more impressive than this software, it's the support it has had from Joey over all this time. I'd have pulled my hair out long ago. :P
