Commit 6fd1106aa4 ("t3700: Skip a test with backslashes in pathspec",
2009-03-13) introduced the BSLASHPSPEC prerequisite. This prerequisite
allows tests to check for systems that can use backslashes in pathspecs
(e.g. to escape glob special characters). On windows (and cygwin), this
does not work because backslashes are used as directory separators, and
git eagerly converts them to forward slashes.
This test file uses the FUNNYNAMES prerequisite to skip this test file
on windows, despite not really being appropriate for this test, which
does not hold on cygwin. The FUNNYNAMES prerequisite is set when the
system can create files with embedded quotes ("), tabs or newlines in
the name. Since cygwin can satisfy FUNNYNAMES, but not BSLASHPSPEC, this
leads to test failures on cygwin.
In order to skip these tests on cygwin, replace the FUNNYNAMES prerequisite
with BSLASHPSPEC, so that this test file is skipped on both windows and
cygwin. While here, fix a few test titles as well.

When a path with wildcard characters, e.g. 'f*o', exists in the
working tree, "git add -- 'f*o'" stops after happily finding
that there is 'f*o' and adding it to the index, without
realizing there may be other paths, e.g. 'foooo', that may match
the given pathspec.
This is because dir.c:do_match_pathspec() disables further
matches with pathspec when it finds an exact match.
