Adding Installation Method for AVCTL on Windows #1

Currently, there is no straightforward method to install AVCTL on a Windows PC, which creates significant difficulties for developers using Windows environments. The existing workaround that I tried involves installing Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) and using Homebrew to install AVCTL, but this process can be tedious and may not suit all users.

WSL Workaround: Currently, the best option for Windows users is to:

  1. Install Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL):
  `wsl -install`
  
  2. Install Homebrew within WSL:
  `/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)`
  
  3. Install AVCTL:
  `brew install avctl`

While functional, this workaround involves multiple steps and dependencies, making it more complex than necessary for developers who prefer using native Windows tools.

Request: Please consider providing a more native installation method for Windows, such as:

  - A pre-built executable or installer for Windows.
  - A pip package that supports Windows natively without the need for WSL.

This would greatly simplify the setup process and reduce the barrier to entry for Windows developers.

Let me know if additional information is required!
