Fix minikube load on windows (kubernetes#20529) (kubernetes#20921)

getWindowsVolumeNameCmd uses the deprecated wmic.exe.

See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/wmisdk/wmic for
details.

Replace the implementation with a call to the Powershell equivalent.

Look in path and system environment vars to locate Powershell.

Improve Powershell discovery
