Fix tests when no compiler.

Since each of Anaconda/Miniconda/conda-forge change sys.version to
contain different things, and some users may install MKL outside
of conda, always try the import and then, if using conda, give some
useful information on how to install MKL (by installing `mkl-service`
not `mkl`).

Many Windows users avoid the command-line and are unfamiliar with env. vars.
They can elect to use Anaconda/Miniconda Python as their system Python and
in that case would not be able to take advantage of g++ or mkl.

This commit works around these issues by adding the appropriate values to
os.environ['PATH'] if they are not already on PATH.
