[VBox] Wrong path of VirtualBox in Win 7/10 under Cygwin

[Serhii Ovsianikov]

When I run launch.sh script in Win 7/10 under Cygwin I have the following error

$ ./launch.sh
Prepare the host system...
Checking for 'free'... OK
Checking for 'expect'... OK
Checking for 'xxd'... OK
If you run this script under Cygwin, you may have to add path to VirtualBox directory to your PATH.
Usually it is enough to run "export PATH=$PATH:"/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Oracle/VirtualBox"
Checking for "VBoxManage"... "VBoxManage" is not available in the path, but it's required. Likely, VirtualBox is not installed. Aborting.

Wrong determination of the path VirtualBox in Win 7/10 under Cygwin (incorrect values in the variable vbox_path):

vbox_path_registry=E:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\

vbox_path=E:Program FilesOracleVirtualBox

    Fix PATH issue for VirtualBox on Windows

    The support to deploy on a remote machine is broke the
    default behaviour on the Windows OS, so now it always
    needs to set the $PATH manually before using the scripts.

    Also, the new functionality didn't work on the remote
    Windows machine because the scripts change the $PATH on
    the local system only.

    This commit adds some more checks and fixes the local
    $PATH setup. It didn't check remote system requirements
    so deploy on a remote machine still have some problems.
    Added several messages in the scripts.

    Also this commit contain increased timeouts to fix
    failures during network interfaces add/change operations
    on some Windows systems.
