This is a meta issue to track all the issues needed for a Windows support.

Goals:

1. We aim to support clang-cl. This is the first priority.
2. Later on, cl, from 2022. This is a very low priority.
3. If we manage to get some mingw toolchain to compile the program - I am happy. But this is not a goal.

Problems:

• Some compiler flags are not compatible with clang-cl. (#77)
• We need a package manager to handle building 3rd parties (ICU, fontconfig?, Skia, WABT, more?)
• We need to find an alternative to fontconfig.
• 'sys/time.h' not found
• [[no_unique_address]] not supported (am I using a wrong compiler? I use MSVC 2022 and its clang-cl)
• We need to pull code from previous attempts of this kind of work. (cherry-picks, rebase etc).
• Need to understand how to run the commit linters on the local machine, as we don't want developers to spam the CI/CD with phantom builds, just to fix a typo on the commit log (yes, that is directed at me)
