Investigate why MPI tests on Windows fail and fix them #1410
Description
In #1398 we disable a number of tests for MPI on Windows. These were failing recurrently but intermittently when executed on the GitHub Actions runners. We also couldn't find an underlying cause for the failures, but the intermittent recurrence suggests a non-deterministic issue such as out-of-memory errors or actual out-of-bounds errors. Since this caused virtually every PR's CI test to fail, it was not really useful, and thus in #1398 the offending tests were turned off.
However, this means that at the moment we do not test the P4estMesh at all in a parallel environment on Windows. Since the underlying cause is still unknown, it would be good to investigate this as soon as possible to at least enable some P4estMesh testing on Windows again...
