When we cannot figure out a uid for the current user, we should still
respect the `db_home: env` setting.
This is particularly important when programs like `ssh` look for the
home directory of the usr, the user overrode `HOME` to "help" Cygwin
determine where the home directory is. Cygwin should n
We should not blindly set the home directory of the SYSTEM account (or
of Microsoft accounts) to `/home/`, especially
`/etc/nsswitch.conf` defines `db_home: env`, in which case we want to
respect the `HOME` variable.

This patch hails from Git for Windows (where the Cygwin runtime is used
in the form of a slightly modified MSYS2 runtime), where it is a
well-established technique to let the `$HOME` variable define where the
current user's home directory is, falling back to `$HOMEDRIVE$HOMEPATH`
and `$USERPROFILE`
This patch mini-series supports Git for Windows' default strategy to
determine the current user's home directory by looking at the
environment variable HOME, falling back to HOMEDRIVE and HOMEPATH, and
if these variables are also unset, to USERPROFILE.
This strategy is a quick method to determine
