- Ignore intermediate progress updates.
- Support locales that use a character other than period as decimal
separator (eg 100,0%).
test1148 checks that the progress finishes at 100% and has the right
bar width. Prior to this change the test assumed that the only progress
reported for such a quick transfer was 100%, however in rare instances
(like in the CI where transfer time can slow considerably) there may be
intermediate updates. For example, below is stderrlog1148 from a failed
CI run with explicit \r and \n added (it is one line; broken up so that
it's easier to understand).

Modifying the locale with environment variables doesn't work for native
Windows applications. Just disable the test in this case if the decimal
separator is something different than a point. Use a precheck with a
small C program to achieve that.
