ChefConfig::PathHelper.all_homes

See self.home.  This method performs a similar operation except that it yields all the different
possible values of 'HOME' that one could have on this platform.  Hence, on windows, if
HOMEDRIVE\HOMEPATH and USERPROFILE are different, the provided block will be called twice.
This method goes out and checks the existence of each location at the time of the call.

The return is a list of all the returned values from each block invocation or a list of paths
if no block is provided.
