cygwin: allow pushing to UNC paths

 cygwin can use an UNC path like //server/share/repo

 $ cd //server/share/dir
 $ mkdir test
 $ cd test
 $ git init --bare

 However, when we try to push from a local Git repository to this repo,
 there is a problem: Git converts the leading "//" into a single "/".

 As cygwin handles an UNC path so well, Git can support them better:

 - Introduce cygwin_offset_1st_component() which keeps the leading "//",
   similar to what Git for Windows does.

 - Move CYGWIN out of the POSIX in the tests for path normalization in t0060
