This fix does not seem ideal, but the test infrastructure using a local
goos doesn't seem to avoid all of the associated challenges, but is
somewhat deeply tied to the setup.
The core issue this addresses for now is that when run on Windows there
can be no code paths that attempt to use an invalid UID string, which on
Windows is described in [1].
For the goos="linux" tests, we now explicitly skip the affected
migration code if runtime.GOOS=="windows", and for the Windows test we
explicitly use the running users uid, rather than just the string
"user1". We also now make the case where a profile exists and has
already been migrated a non-error condition toward the outer API.

I realized that a lot of the problems that we're seeing around migration and
LocalBackend state can be avoided if we drive Windows pref migration entirely
from within tailscaled. By doing it this way, tailscaled can automatically
perform the migration as soon as the connection with the client frontend is
established.
Since tailscaled is already running as LocalSystem, it already has access to
the user's local AppData directory. The profile manager already knows which
user is connected, so we simply need to resolve the user's prefs file and read
it from there.
Of course, to properly migrate this information we need to also check system
policies. I moved a bunch of policy resolution code out of the GUI and into
a new package in util/winutil/policy.
