AF_UNIX has been supported on windows since version 1803 (build 17134)
see https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/af_unix-comes-to-windows/

Enabling support for AF_UNIX will enable better peer-to-peer connectivity scenarios for Azure IoT Edge. The changes to enable AF_UNIX on Windows seem small and low risk.

I need feedback on these proposed changes

test_socketserver just failed on my dev machine.
based on the blog article datagram is not supported on windows, so I believe test_ThreadingUnixDatagramServer and test_UnixDatagramServer should be skipped

This PR is not ready yet. There are a bunch of tests failing.
