[GRASS-dev] projshare path

Another issue with paths:

For configure I have to give the location of the proj share directory in
*nix path form (/c/grass/share/proj/).

However, this won't work at runtime. So we need to translate PROJSHARE
from one to the other before putting it into init.bat.

It might be better for the configure script to accept it in the proper format rather than trying to translate later?? (Would of course also be nice to get rid of the whole dependency on PROJSHARE..)

Then the configure script has to translate it to MSys' syntax perform
the existence checks.
