Windows support for containers

[nzakas]

Describe the solution

I'm developing an app locally on Windows. I decided to use containers for one of my workers and was disappointed to find this error:

X [ERROR] Local development with containers is currently not supported on Windows. You should use WSL instead. You can also set enable_containers to false if you do not need to develop the container part of your application.

What would it take to get Windows support for containers?

Hey, for Windows we recommend using WSL like it says in the error message, but would be interested to know if there's a reason that doesn't work for your setup!

I think the underlying reason we can't currrently support docker on windows without WSL is because workerd doesn't support windows pipes, so transferring the issue there.
