Prioritize PATH over py --list-paths in Windows selection (#2057)

`uv --system` is failing in GitHub Actions, because `py --list-paths`
returns all the pre-cached Pythons:

```
-V:3.12 *        C:\hostedtoolcache\windows\Python\3.12.2\x64\python.exe
-V:3.12-32       C:\hostedtoolcache\windows\Python\3.12.2\x86\python.exe
-V:3.11          C:\hostedtoolcache\windows\Python\3.11.8\x64\python.exe
-V:3.11-32       C:\hostedtoolcache\windows\Python\3.11.8\x86\python.exe
-V:3.10          C:\hostedtoolcache\windows\Python\3.10.11\x64\python.exe
-V:3.10-32       C:\hostedtoolcache\windows\Python\3.10.11\x86\python.exe
-V:3.9           C:\hostedtoolcache\windows\Python\3.9.13\x64\python.exe
-V:3.9-32        C:\hostedtoolcache\windows\Python\3.9.13\x86\python.exe
-V:3.8           C:\hostedtoolcache\windows\Python\3.8.10\x64\python.exe
-V:3.8-32        C:\hostedtoolcache\windows\Python\3.8.10\x86\python.exe
-V:3.7           C:\hostedtoolcache\windows\Python\3.7.9\x64\python.exe
-V:3.7-32        C:\hostedtoolcache\windows\Python\3.7.9\x86\python.exe
```

So, our default selector returns the first entry here. But none of these
are actually in `PATH` except the one that the user installed via
`actions/setup-python@v5` -- that's the point of the action, that it
puts the correct versions in `PATH`.

It seems to me like we should prioritize `PATH` over `py --list-paths`.
Is there a good reason not to do this?
