Separate issue for #1781

  • Problem: Windows cannot handle large command lines See: https://tests.stockfishchess.org/actions?action=&user=mgrabiak&text=The+filename+or+extension+is+too+long

  • Windows worker shouldnt be assigned to these tests.

  • Windows max length seems to be 32767 characters when used with CreateProcess which I think is probably what the python subprocess library uses, but this needs confirmation.
