add--interactive: fix external command invocation on Windows
Back in 21e9757e (Hack git-add--interactive to make it work with ActiveState Perl, 2007-08-01), the invocation of external commands was changed to use qx{} on Windows. The rationale was that the command interpreter on Windows is not a POSIX shell, but rather Windows's CMD. That patch was wrong to include 'msys' in the check whether to use qx{} or not: 'msys' identifies MSYS perl as shipped with Git for Windows, which does not need the special treatment; qx{} should be used only with ActiveState perl, which is identified by 'MSWin32'.
