Summary: Allow os.listdir to accept file names longer than MAX_PATH

Initial Comment:
On windows, os.listdir currently truncates paths 
longer than MAX_PATH due to using a fixed-size 
buffer.  Patch allocates a buffer of needed size.
It also replaces the forward slash appended to the 
path with a backslash since forward slashes don't
work when using a raw path.  There was also a 
potential crash if FindClose failed.

Diff'ed against 2.4.3.
