The POSIX cf-support is /bin/sh, so Windows support cases have had no equivalent way to collect diagnostics. Adds a PowerShell port plus a .cmd wrapper that runs it with -ExecutionPolicy Bypass so an unsigned script isn't blocked by the default machine policy.

Collects the Windows equivalent of each POSIX section, the 'Cfengine Nova' Windows Event Log entries in place of the syslog grep, and the diagnostics directory including report_dumps.

Ticket: ENT-9046
Packaging: cfengine/buildscripts#2444

The POSIX cf-support is /bin/sh and cannot run on Windows, so Windows support
cases had no way to collect diagnostics.

Installs cf-support.ps1 and cf-support.cmd into bin. Requires cfengine/core#6324,
which builds them.
