This is a follow up for #21403.

Unix domain sockets is supported on Windows. https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/af_unix-comes-to-windows/

Add support for Windows platform.

Any chance of supporting named pipes on windows? It's been around longer than AF_UNIX, and we rely on it for IPC on windows (with libuv / nodejs application).

Did some experiments and here are some updates:
Unix domain socket is not supported with Overlapped IO operation. It doesn't fit the current async eventhandler pattern.

For named pipes,
It's probably not worthy to create APIs for windows-specific named pipes.
It can work as a substitute for Unix domain sockets on windows. Named pipes have Overlapped IO supported. I'll leave it as a todo item.

It's 2022 & still no support for Unix Sockets on Windows?
Is there any progress/update on this topic?
