In python 3.8 PATH is no longer used to search for DLLs on Windows. When building Swift's patched version of LLDB this prevents LLDB from starting up, because it cannot find DLLs like swiftCore.dll, cmark-gfm.dll, etc. This PR adds a flag that can be passed to manually add specific directories as DLL search paths. This is preferred over simply expanding all directories in PATH which would recreate the code-injection security issues that the Python 3.8 change was designed to address.
