Windows support

[prabirshrestha]

Given that both vim and neovim uses libvterm and winpty to support embedding terminals, wondering if tmux can finally work in windows natively.

There's going to be more required than just linking against those libraries. There's all the process management, job, and tty control logic that uses POSIX 1003 APIs. And that's just the obvious items that come to mind. Are you volunteering to write the thousands of lines of necessary code?

I'm not familiar with tmux source code and C and won't be able to contribute.

Feel free to close the issue.

I have little interest in support for closed source, commercial OSs and less for non-Unix platforms, but if you do the work I'll take a look. It will need some care to avoid messing the main codebase (that is, it will need to live mostly in compat/).
