Fix a fatal error at startup on Windows due to non-ASCII characters in PATH.
main.c (find_and_set_default_shell): Don't use file_exists_p or dir_file_exists_p, as those call readdir, which can fail if PATH includes directories with non-ASCII characters, and that would cause Make to fail at startup with confusing diagnostics. See https://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=30846737 for the details.
