Subject: startstop_node.py: improve the hack of launching twistd
X-Git-Tag: allmydata-tahoe-0.6.0~41

startstop_node.py: improve the hack of launching twistd
Thanks to Brian for helping me figure out the cleaner way to do this: take the
first result from which("twistd"), and if it has the extension ".bat" or
".exe" then execute it, else execute python and give it as the first argument.
