Windows d2vm support #2

Theoretically this should be possible as container images run using hyper-v on consumer editions of windows. Assuming this is PR welcome

Hi @nwmcsween, thanks for reaching out ! What do you mean by windows support ? building windows vm from container image ?

This seems to me a little bit complicated. I have had very bad experiences in the past trying to dockerize windows system services... If I remember correctly, the containers do not run systematically with hyperv, only if the hyperv-isolation mode is enabled. Also, the windows containers file structure is quite different.

But if you want to give it a try, I'd be more than happy to review the pull request.
