Powershell does not support running files (with `-File`) that do not end in the `.ps1` extension. This is obviously dumb for interoperability: you'd have kerblam shell workflows working on linux but not on windows, and vice-versa. A workaround is to use `Invoke-Command`, and source the file inside the "CommandBlock" that Invoke-Command supports. This is fine, but then if you find out that `Invoke-Command` is *not* a program, *it's a powershell internal "magic" command*. So when Kerblam! tries to spawn the `Invoke-Command` executable it fails. So, we combine both approaches: we use `powershell -Command` to spawn a powershell, and pass a command to it. This command is `Invoke-Command`, which takes care of reading the content of whatever workflow file we are using, and execute it (in the current shell, so our sub-shell). Fuck me!

It is currently unknown if tests pass on Windows, as I do not have a system setup to run them. |

This branch adds (tentative) support for the Windows architecture. This mainly impacts filesystem interactions (e.g. the
MetadataExtmodule that we need to get file sizes) and the execution policies (i.e. supporting powershell instead of bash).This would fix #48.
