STREAM_PROTOCOL_PATH is incorrectly parsed on Windows

[MarkRivers]

StreamProtocol.cc contains this code:

#ifdef windows
     const char pathseparator = ';';
     const char dirseparator = '\\';
 #else

The problem is that "windows" is not defined when building the code, at least not with Visual Studio 2017 and base 7.0.4. This means that it is using the incorrect pathseparator and dirseparator.

This tech-talk issue https://epics.anl.gov/tech-talk/2020/msg01400.php shows how in spite of this it actually works in some cases, which may be why the problem has not been previously reported.

This patch fixes the problem.
