## Message

```
std.Build.findProgram(): Try with and without the Windows executable extensions.

I renamed std.process.Child.CreateProcessSupportedExtension to WindowsExtension
and made it public to avoid duplicating the list of extensions.

While here, I also improved it to not misreport OOM from std.fs.realpathAlloc()
as a generic failure to find the program, but instead panic like the rest of the
build system does for OOM.

Closes #20314.

```
