Windows support?

[carver]

What is wrong?

Windows is not supported. Even if we never get trinity supported, just being able to run evm stuff on Windows would be nice.

How can it be fixed

Known issues:

• Skip pyethash dependency in Windows #395 -- need a pyethash fallback (maybe native python?)
• Experiment with using uvloop in p2p/trinity #781 -- fall back to default loop because can't use uvloop? Does trio support windows?

Let's add to this list as we discover more.

Then hunt down anything else. Probably need a Windows machine to develop this at any sort of reasonable speed.

2012 had a "may fix". I think it's highly unlikely that this is resolved. Closing this issue would definitely require confirmation.

@carver yep, I guess this was closed automatically from a commit message 👍
