pager: improve support for various flavors of `more` on Windows
Hardcoding 'more' -> 'more.com' means that 'more.exe' from MSYS would need to be
configured with its *.exe extension. This will resolve to either one, as
cmd.exe would have done if the command ran through the shell.
Something that's maybe problematic with this is it comes after 'pageractive' and
various ui configs have been set by the calling method. But the other early
exits in this method don't undo those changes either.
