[Borgbackup] borg on windows?

[Marian Beermann]

There are multiple ways to use Borg on Windows.

- Experimental: The "windows" branch (has not been merged with the main
  development branch in a while). This is not really stable and
  sometimes crashes, also no binaries available. Some advanced features
  (like ACLs and ADS) are already supported.
- Via Cygwin; there is an unofficial installer including Cygwin
- Via Windows 10 WSL; there is a ticket where people tried it and it
  works.

The latter two can't and never will support things like ACLs, ADS, EA,
OIDs, ... and so on.

See tickets with "os: windows" label:

Cheers, Marian
