feat: add preliminar Windows support (#1636)

Add preliminar Windows support for both
development and production environments.

Default profile.Data will be set to "C:\ProgramData\memos" on Windows.
Folder will be created if it does not exist, as this behavior is
expected for Windows applications.

System service installation can be achieved with third-party tools,
explained in docs/windows-service.md.

Not sure if it's worth using https://github.com/kardianos/service
to make service support built-in.

This could be a nice addition alongside #1583 (add Windows artifacts)

+# Development
+
+Memos is built with a curated tech stack. It is optimized for developer experience and is very easy to start working on the code:
+
+1. It has no external dependency.
+2. It requires zero config.
+3. 1 command to start backend and 1 command to start frontend, both with live reload support.
+
+## Tech Stack
+
+|                 Frontend                 |              Backend              |
+| ---------------------------------------- | --------------------------------- |
+| [React](https://react.dev/)              | [Go](https://go.dev/)             |
+| [Tailwind CSS](https://tailwindcss.com/) | [SQLite](https://www.sqlite.org/) |
+| [Vite](https://vitejs.dev/)              |                                   |
+| [pnpm](https://pnpm.io/)                 |                                   |
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- [Go](https://golang.org/doc/install)
+- [Air](https://github.com/cosmtrek/air#installation) for backend live reload
+- [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/)
+- [pnpm](https://pnpm.io/installation)
+
+## Steps
+
+(Using PowerShell)
+
+1. pull source code
+
+   ```powershell
+   git clone https://github.com/usememos/memos
+   # or
+   gh repo clone usememos/memos
+   ```
+
+2. cd into the project root directory
+
+   ```powershell
+   cd memos
+   ```
+
+3. start backend using air (with live reload)
+
+   ```powershell
+   air -c .\scripts\.air-windows.toml
+   ```
+
+4. start frontend dev server
+
+   ```powershell
+   cd web; pnpm i; pnpm dev
+   ```
+
+Memos should now be running at [http://localhost:3001](http://localhost:3001) and changing either frontend or backend code would trigger live reload.
+
+## Building
+
+Frontend must be built before backend. The built frontend must be placed in the backend ./server/dist directory. Otherwise, you will get a "No frontend embeded" error.
+
+### Frontend
+
+```powershell
+Move-Item "./server/dist" "./server/dist.bak"
+cd web; pnpm i --frozen-lockfile; pnpm build; cd ..;
+Move-Item "./web/dist" "./server/" -Force
+```
+
+### Backend
+
+```powershell
+go build -o ./build/memos.exe ./main.go
+```
+
+## ❕ Notes
+
+- Start development servers easier by running the provided `start.ps1` script.
+This will start both backend and frontend in detached PowerShell windows:
+
+   ```powershell
+   .\scripts\start.ps1
+   ```
+
+- Produce a local build easier using the provided `build.ps1` script to build both frontend and backend:
+
+   ```powershell
+   .\scripts\build.ps1
+   ```
+
+   This will produce a memos.exe file in the ./build directory.

+# Installing memos as a service on Windows
+
+While memos first-class support is for Docker, you may also install memos as a Windows service. It will run under SYSTEM account and start automatically at system boot.
+
+❗ All service management methods requires admin privileges. Use [gsudo](https://gerardog.github.io/gsudo/docs/install), or open a new PowerShell terminal as admin:
+
+```powershell
+Start-Process powershell -Verb RunAs
+```
+
+## Choose one of the following methods
+
+### 1. Using [NSSM](https://nssm.cc/download)
+
+NSSM is a lightweight service wrapper.
+
+You may put `nssm.exe` in the same directory as `memos.exe`, or add its directory to your system PATH. Prefer the latest 64-bit version of `nssm.exe`.
+
+```powershell
+# Install memos as a service
+nssm install memos "C:\path\to\memos.exe" --mode prod --port 5230
+
+# Delay auto start
+nssm set memos DisplayName "memos service"
+
+# Configure extra service parameters
+nssm set memos Description "A lightweight, self-hosted memo hub. https://usememos.com/" 
+
+# Delay auto start
+nssm set memos Start SERVICE_DELAYED_AUTO_START
+
+# Edit service using NSSM GUI
+nssm edit memos
+
+# Start the service
+nssm start memos
+
+# Remove the service, if ever needed
+nssm remove memos confirm
+```
+
+### 2. Using [WinSW](https://github.com/winsw/winsw)
+
+Find the latest release tag and download the asset `WinSW-net46x.exe`. Then, put it in the same directory as `memos.exe` and rename it to `memos-service.exe`.
+
+Now, in the same directory, create the service configuration file `memos-service.xml`:
+
+```xml
+<service>
+    <id>memos</id>
+    <name>memos service</name>
+    <description>A lightweight, self-hosted memo hub. https://usememos.com/</description>
+    <onfailure action="restart" delay="10 sec"/>
+    <executable>%BASE%\memos.exe</executable>
+    <arguments>--mode prod --port 5230</arguments>
+    <delayedAutoStart>true</delayedAutoStart>
+    <log mode="none" />   
+</service>
+```
+
+Then, install the service:
+
+```powershell
+# Install the service
+.\memos-service.exe install
+
+# Start the service
+.\memos-service.exe start
+
+# Remove the service, if ever needed
+.\memos-service.exe uninstall
+```
+
+### Manage the service
+
+You may use the `net` command to manage the service:
+
+```powershell
+net start memos
+net stop memos
+```
+
+Also, by using one of the provided methods, the service will appear in the Windows Services Manager `services.msc`.
+
+## Notes
+
+- On Windows, memos store its data in the following directory:
+
+    ```powershell
+    $env:ProgramData\memos
+    # Typically, this will resolve to C:\ProgramData\memos
+    ```
+
+    You may specify a custom directory by appending `--data <path>` to the service command line.
+
+- If the service fails to start, you should inspect the Windows Event Viewer `eventvwr.msc`.
+
+- Memos will be accessible at [http://localhost:5230](http://localhost:5230) by default.
