  File::Find: fix "follow => 1" on Windows

File::Find's code expects unix-style paths and it manipulates them using
basic string operations. That code is very fragile, and ideally we
should make it use File::Spec, but that would involve rewriting almost
the whole module.

Instead, we made it convert backslashes to slashes and handle drive
letters.

Note from xenu: this commit was adapted from the PR linked in this
blogpost[1]. I have squashed it, written the commit message and slightly
modified the code.
