#396 set SPAWNPATH to Spawn-light-0.6.0-9f1b36b00b for Buildings 12, 13 and master. Buildings master now uses spawn-0.6.0-638b8408fd, and install.py puts it in another directory. So the 52 EnergyPlus models of Buildings_latest still failed in the FMI jobs with "Failed to find spawn executable in Buildings Library installation, on SPAWNPATH and on PATH".

Let a value of environmentSimulation have a wildcard. It becomes all the directories it matches, separated by the path separator. Buildings searches SPAWNPATH like PATH, so it finds the Spawn that its version asks for.
