Add Windows support

[auchenberg]

I've noticed the https://github.com/Gottox/child_pty/compare/windows branch. Creating this issue to get an overview of the outstanding tasks for windows support.

How can we help?

Hi @auchenberg!

The problem with windows support is, that winpty needs a custom exec function. This makes reusing nodes child_process challenging. Currently I'm investigating the possibility to overwrite handlers with node, but I'm not sure if this will work.

I'm currently contracted with another project, so this task is currently stalled. I'll return to this issue once I got some free time again.

Thanks for your support :)

Any update on this happening?

The roadmap is there. I still need a proper windows setup to implement and test.
