[PATCH v2] t4126: fix "funny directory name" test on Windows (again)

[Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>]

Even though "git update-index --cacheinfo" ought to be filesystem
agnostic,

    $ git update-index --add --cacheinfo "100644,$empty_blob,funny /empty"

fails only on Windows, and this unfortunately makes the approach of
the previous step unworkable.

Resurrect the earlier approach to give up on running the test on
known-bad platforms.  Instead of computing a custom prerequisite,
just use !MINGW we have used elsewhere.

 Another reason for using MINGW is that the custom prerequisite
 would not have been a good match for lazy_prereq mechanism, which
 wants to isolate itself by creating a temporary directory to run
 the test for prerequisites, which means we are not expected use the
 main index or object store to test for prerequisites, either, which
 in turn means we are pretty much forbidden from using Git while
 computing the prerequisite.  "a platform fails the prerequisite if
 the steps to create sample patches do not work" was how the earlier
 step computed the custom prerequisite, which cannot be done without
 creating another repository in the temporary place given, which
 means we cannot reuse the patches created in the real test.

 Also, if a platform other than MINGW fails the early part of this
 test, we would want to _know_ about it, even if we may not want to
 fix it.  A custom prerequisite will defeat that.
