Drop find_(library|file|path) prefixes from PATH on non-Windows
Since commit v3.3.0-rc1~430^2 (Teach find_(library|file|path) to get prefixes from PATH, 2015-02-18) we search in <prefix>/include and <prefix>/lib directories for prefixes with bin directories in the PATH environment variable. The motivation was to support MSYS, MinGW and similar Windows platforms in their default environments automatically. At the time this behavior was thought to be worthwhile in general.
