Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. This basically follows the discussions open https://github.com/mermaid-js/mermaid-cli/issues/467 and https://github.com/mermaidjs/mermaid.cli/issues/73

In a nutshell, it would be great to have a standard way of releasing a format that could be installed easily on Windows.

Describe the solution you'd like One suggestion would be to create an .exe / .msi which would be attached to the project as a release.

Describe alternatives you've considered

The current path of doing this would be to do this https://github.com/mermaid-js/mermaid-cli/issues/467#issuecomment-1483919459

Additionally, nodes.js needs to be installed first, followed by the installation of npm, than the steps above will take place

Additional context This would really simply how windows users get access to the library, and would open up doors for potential new projects that need this on Windows machines.
