help: use HTML as the default help format on Windows
When 'git help $cmd' is run without a format option (e.g. -w), the 'man' format is always used. On some platforms, however, manual page viewers are not often available. Introduce DEFAULT_HELP_FORMAT make variable in order to allow the default format configurable at compile time, and set it to HTML when compiling on Windows (but not Cygwin).
