git-gui: Fix gitk search in $PATH to work on Windows

Back in 15430be5a1 ("Look for gitk in $PATH, not $LIBEXEC/git-core")
git-gui learned to use [_which gitk] to locate where gitk's script
is as Git 1.6 will install gitk to $prefix/bin (in $PATH) and all
of the other tools are in $gitexecdir.

This failed on Windows because _which adds the ".exe" suffix as it
searches for the program on $PATH, under the assumption that we can
only execute something from Tcl if it is a proper Windows executable.

When scanning for gitk on Windows we need to omit the ".exe" suffix.
