upload-archive: use start_command instead of fork
The POSIX-function fork is not supported on Windows. Use our start_command API instead. As this is the last call-site that depends on the fork-stub in compat/mingw.h, remove that as well. Add an undocumented flag to git-archive that tells it that the action originated from a remote, so features can be disabled. Thanks to Jeff King for work on this part. Remove the NOT_MINGW-prereq for t5000, as git-archive --remote now works.
