    Keep CMake from finding Cygwin's Python.
    
    Try to find Python and set PYTHON_EXECUTABLE on Windows via the registry
    prior to calling FindPythonInterp. This works around a bug in CMake that
    prefers Cygwin's Python, which is a symlink, which by default is a text
    file that contains a Cygwin-specific cookie, which is therefore useless
    outside of Cygwin.
    
    This is avoids the need to pass -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=... to CMake.
