Add support of Windows #113

I do see that you call out in the README, but obviously including the binaries for Windows would be ideal.

I opened up an issue over at @openzim/libzim, since it seems like building libzim for Windows is a pain point.

@j0hnm4r5 Thank you for opening this ticket. I'm very supportive of this and actually wonders that we don't have open a ticket earlier. Probably because I already know that this ticket is blocked by https://github.com/kiwix/kiwix-build/issues/466. But considering that https://github.com/kiwix/kiwix-build/issues/466 is going to be fixed soon. This is a very good time to open it.

Assuming we have the properly DLL of libzim, do you think you could add the support of Windows to Node-libzim?

Blocked by #118 too, but should be quick to fix

j0hnm4r5 commented 8 months ago

Absolutely. I'll do everything I can.
