Brian Curtin 490b32a397 Fix #11939. Set st_dev attribute on Windows to simplify os.path.samefile.
By setting the st_dev attribute, we can then remove some Windows-specific
code and move os.path.samefile/sameopenfile/samestat to Lib/genericpath.py
so all platforms share the same implementation.

This uses the GetFileInformationByHandle function to return a tuple of values

is exposed as os.path.sameopenfile.
