Ashay Rane has updated the pull request incrementally with one additional
commit since the last revision:
Address PR comments and fix more failing tests
1. Moved `PowerShellPath()` function to jdk.test.lib.util.FileUtils.
2. Updated `PowerShellPath()` so that if the file doesn't exist, we
default to the original string.
3. Replaced more instances of `"powershell"` to `PowerShellPath()` and
added the standard Windows directories to the Win836570 test (so that
it can launch the JVM). This now makes all related tier2 and tier3
tests in the test/jdk directory to pass.
4. Replaced `"ping"` with `%%SystemRoot%%\\System32\\ping.exe` since
this string is passed to `cmd /C`, which doesn't have the same
resolution steps as `CreateProcess()`, which looks for binaries in
the Windows\System32 directory if the directory part is not
specified.
