Test failures on Windows ARM64 install

[zooba]

Ran the test suite on an installed ARM64 machine and saw the errors below.

This is mostly a note-to-self to come back to this, but if anyone else wants to jump in and fix a test or two (I think they're mostly obvious what's gone wrong), feel free. I'm including the skipped tests to double check that they ought to be skipped.

The run command was just py -m test -j4 -w and it should be an otherwise clean machine.

#113129 changed this code. It is likely fixed now.

#113129 changed this code. It is likely fixed now.

That was my change... I don't recall fixing this?

[zooba]

Looks like I did fix it though, okay cool. Nope, just made it more likely that it'd be in a directory without spaces (or possibly more likely...)

[zooba]

#114451 fixes most of the tests, just test_ctypes and test_audit remain.

I suspect/fear that ctypes will need a libffi fix or update, as it's likely not our code at fault.

test_audit probably just needs a retry with delay for the timeout. I think we added similar for the other tests that use WMI.

[zooba]

The ctypes failure appears to be the same as #110190 (same test failing on multiple ARM64 platforms), so closing this issue in favour of that one.
