Fixes #176.

Added win-geopython-workshop-ctl.bat for Windows users who have not installed WSL. It is as close to a direct translation of geopython-workshop-ctl.sh as I could manage; I believe I have tested all commands to function identically and have identical outputs as long as Docker is properly installed.

I have used Windows line terminators \r\n. Switching to Unix line terminators \n should be done with caution, but should be OK as long as no CALL or GOTO operators are introduced.

Feel free to ping me if changes are made to geopython-workshop-ctl.sh.

This is a welcome addition. Though we strongly suggest Win users to install WSL. But maybe sometimes folks don't have enough rights. In Tartu at least oneWin- participant stumbled.
Only I can't test as I don't have a Windows machine.

If we make this part of the workshop setup, then words need to be added to the intro documentation files that we start the WS with on:
