add win64 to the BuildSlaves.py file of the try masters

Lets be consistent and use a different secret variable for each platform. ie  win64_try_build_password. r+ with that.

Attachment: enable win64 for try

I was expecting it to be harder to make it work.
It run on my dev-master01 with:
buildbot sendchange --master dev-master01.build.mozilla.org:9040 --revision 037cdf751eff --branch try --username [e-mail] --comments "try: -b do -p win64 -u none -t none" doit
and:
buildbot sendchange --master dev-master01.build.mozilla.org:9040 --revision 037cdf751eff --branch try --username [e-mail] --comments "try: -b do -p all -u all -t none" doit

I have selected slaves 25 to 43 to become try slaves (41 is to be sent to iX).
The ratio will be 20 vs 18 after realizing that using pushes % as the measuring stick for load on try is incorrect (not all try pushes trigger windows builds).

The slaves have been disabled and change to match the following slavealloc values:
* Trustlevel: try
* Pool: try-scl1

rmdir /S /Q .ssh
scp.exe [e-mail]:~/w32-try-keys.zip .
C:\mozilla-build\7zip\7z.exe x w32-try-keys.zip
del w32-try-keys.zip
del .ssh\.7z
REM Testing - it should not ask you for authentication
set HOME=C:\Users\cltbld
ssh.exe -i .ssh/trybld_dsa [e-mail] hostname
rmdir /S /Q E:\builds\moz2_slave

enable win64 for try

Landed on default: 9ca9711e01e5

I also added since it has been missed in other patches:
+del BRANCHES['mozilla-release']['platforms']['win64']

I will do a reconfig in the morning and reboot the machines so they can connect to the try masters.

I have rebooted all the win64 try slaves into the pool and have been taking jobs since early this morning.
