Missing msvcr120.dll in windows x64 archive about postgresql-embedded HOT 4 CLOSED

@martinberanek From what you can get on google:

"The program can't start because MSVCR120.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."
If you get that error, download the Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013:

The vcredist_x86.exe you will need if you are running the 32-bit version of PostgreSQL 9.4 and the vcredist_x64.exe is generally the one you want if you are running the 64-bit PostgreSQL 9.4beta1.

I'm not sure this will help, but you can try anyway.

MSVCR120.dll comes with jre 1.8, so all you need to do is extend 'Path' environment variable in onBeforeProcessStart with jre\bin.
Something like this (in Kotlin) :

override fun onBeforeProcessStart(processBuilder: ProcessBuilder?, config: PostgresConfig?, runtimeConfig: IRuntimeConfig?) {
            super.onBeforeProcessStart(processBuilder, config, runtimeConfig)
            processBuilder?.environment()?.let { env ->
                env["Path"] = env["Path"].orEmpty() + ";${env["JAVA_HOME"]!!}\\jre\\bin"
     }
}

@Tapac thank you for the suggestion. I'll try to use it a bit later.
Btw it would be great if you could send the PR (but not in Kotlin :) ).

I'm closing this one, since there's no answer. Feel free to reopen if it's still actual.
