Summary: Add %var% support to ntpath.expandvars

Initial Comment:
NT variables are passed around as %var% instead of 
$var or ${var}.  Providing support for this gives a 
seamless user experience for NT users using Python.

E.g. os.path.expandvars('%TEMP%') now does what is 
expected on NT.

I updated the docstring, could not find any tests or 
documentation references in svn for this portion of 
code.
