echo_via_pager broken on Windows in 7.1
Calls to `click.echo_via_pager` are failing on Windows since upgrading to 7.1 

### Expected behavior (7.0)
```
Python 3.7.3 (v3.7.3:ef4ec6ed12, Mar 25 2019, 22:22:05) [MSC v.1916 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import click
>>> click.__version__
'7.0'
>>> text = [f"hello {i} \n" for i in range(1000)]
>>> click.echo_via_pager(text)
hello 0
hello 1
hello 2
hello 3
hello 4
-- MORE --
```

### Actual behavior (7.1)
```
Python 3.8.1 (tags/v3.8.1:1b293b6, Dec 18 2019, 23:11:46) [MSC v.1916 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import click
>>> click.__version__
'7.1.1'
>>> text = [f"hello {i} \n" for i in range(1000)]
>>> click.echo_via_pager(text)
The system cannot find the file specified.
>>>
```

## Notes
- Only seems broken on Windows: tested with Ubuntu WSL and click 7.1, works as expected


### Environment

* Python version: 3.7, 3.8 (same results)
* Click version: 7.1.1


Same issue as [here](https://github.com/dbcli/pgcli/issues/1167) - and same root cause:
```python
>>> os.environ['PAGER'] = 'less -SRXF'
>>> import click
>>> text = [f"hello {i} \n" for i in range(1000)]
>>> click.echo_via_pager(text)
The system cannot find the file specified.

>>> os.environ['PAGER'] = 'less'
>>> click.echo_via_pager(text)
  hello 0
  hello 1
  hello 2
  hello 3
[...]
```
`click.edit()` exhibits the same problem
Due to #1470. I'll see about reverting that or fixing it on Windows.
