Use more reliable serial device naming in Windows.
* Strip leading "/dev/" from MONITOR_PORT before handing to avrdude in Windows. * Use the more widely available awk tool instead of bc to subtract 1 from COM ID (as opposed to `bc`). * Allow Windows user to specify "com1" or just "1". * Document MONITOR_PORT format for Windows users.
