Use mps_root_create_thread in preference to mps_root_create_reg.
New test harness run_test passes pointer to cold end of stack, since this is needed by many tests.

* Fix typo in argerr/41.c.
* Delete argerr/43.c and argerr/44.c: MVFF doesn't take a maximum size argument so we can't test for erroneous values of this argument.
* Fix assertion condition in conerr/59.c.
* In function/136.c, need to specify extend-by for second pool, now that it's an MVFF pool.
* function/224.c now passes (fragmentation is avoided because MVFF allocations can cross extent boundaries).

1. Document how to run it on Windows from a Cygwin shell.
2. Ignore trailing spaces when analyzing test output.
3. Use the directory separator "/" since we're running under Cygwin.
4. No need for cat.exe, strings.exe, or tee.exe (these are supplied by Cygwin).
5. Microsoft Visual C/C++ needs /D_CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS to avoid a warning about scanf.
6. The Microsoft Visual C/C++ linker no longer takes the options /debugtype:both or /debug:full. Replace with /debug.
7. Remove /pdb:none option (we want the PDB so that we can debug the result).
8. windows.h defines an UNALIGNED macro, so need to #undef it.
9. The long int type is 32 bits on 64-bit Windows, so we need size_t instead.
10. The values in the LPEXCEPTION_RECORD structure have type ULONG_PTR.
11. Test cases are expecting access violations to report abort=true, but on Windows they are caught by the exception handler, so report abort=true in this case.
12. mpsw3.h has gone, but we do need mpswin.h.
Fix some of the test cases:
1. Avoid compiler warning about overflowed multiplication in argerr/153.c.
2. In conerr/2.c, conerr/8.c and conerr/13.c, malloc enough space so that the signature check doesn't cause an access violation.
3. In conerr/25.c, allocate an object whose size is aligned to the platform alignment, which is 16 bytes on w3i6mv.
4. In connerr/18.c, conerr/53.c and conerr/54.c, update the location and text of the expected assertions.

Test cases conerr/{53,54}.c rely on junk in uninitialized local variables, so ensure that there is some.
Test case function/72.c relies on an object moving, but it might be pinned by an ambiguous reference from the stack, so don't register the stack as a root.
