Summary webkitpy.common.checkout, webkitpy.tool packages don't work under win32

Or, at least, we get lots of failures in these two packages when we run test-webkitpy. This isn't real surprising, since in addition to all of the os.path.sep issues we're likely to hit, we can't guarantee consistently that svn and/or git are installed. If there is a consensus that we do want these to work in native win32 environments (and not just cygwin), then I will post more details and we can figure out how hard getting them to work might be. For now, in the roll-up patch on bug 48728, I'm just planning to skip these directories completely.

Wow, the hack in test/main.py for this is awful! _win32_blacklist cuts out a bunch of tests. :(
