Breezy support for Windows

[Raoul Snyman]

When trying to install breezy via pip on my Windows 7 VM (note, this is currently 3.0b1), I get the following error (paths somewhat redacted for privacy):

    copying build\scripts-3.6\git-remote-bzr -> python36\Scripts
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "pip-install-n80qmf4c\breezy\setup.py", line 145, in run
        args = self._win_batch_args()
      File "pip-install-n80qmf4c\breezy\setup.py", line 162, in _win_batch_args
        from breezy.win32utils import winver
    ImportError: cannot import name 'winver'

    During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

    Traceback (most recent call last):

        print(("ERROR: Unable to create %s: %s" % (batch_path, e)))
    UnboundLocalError: local variable 'batch_path' referenced before assignment

I noticed that 3.0 was just released, so I downloaded the tarball for that and tried to install it and got the exact same error.

Unfortunately we since we don't have access to Windows machines, we haven't paid much attention to Breezy on Windows.

https://code.launchpad.net/~jelmer/brz/appveyor adds appveyor support for Breezy and fixes a couple of Windows porting issues, but it doesn't seem to hit the issues you mention.

Help getting Breezy to run on Windows (and passing the testsuite) would be great.

I found the merge proposal where this code was removed: https://code.launchpad.net/~gz/brz/farewell_98/+merge/325130

Looks like it's not needed anymore. I'll update the code based on the changes I made to get it to install on Windows.
