[p4] unable to change repository path for p4s on windows

[Stephen Vance]

To change the values for a service, use

p4 set -S <servicename> P4ROOT=<path>

You will need to manually move your database files if you want to keep 
what you have. Of course, it won't take effect until you stop and start 
the service.
