[issue21319] WindowsRegistryFinder never added to sys.meta_path

Turns out to be non-issue after all! I was working through the import code for other reasons and noticed that the WindowsRegistryFinder was there. I'll spare you the complications of debugging the _bootstrap part of import, but basically the code in _bootstrap.py:_setup loads the "nt" module directly instead of having it masquerade as "os" as it normally does. Therefore os.__name__ is indeed "nt" and the WindowsRegistryFinder is added to sys.meta_path
