[PATCH] gas: testsuite: Fix multibyte3 test cases on Windows.
This patch addresses failures in the multibyte3 test cases for the gas assembler on Windows. The failures occur because the regular expression [^:] used for matching file paths prevents correct recognition of Windows-style paths (e.g., D:/Works/...). The patch aims to correct the regular expressions within the test suite to properly handle these paths, ensuring the tests pass on Windows.
