Implement ExitCodeExt for Windows
Fixesrust-lang#97914
### Motivation:
On Windows it is common for applications to return `HRESULT` (`i32`) or `DWORD` (`u32`) values. These stem from COM based components ([HRESULTS](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/objbase/nf-objbase-coinitialize)), Win32 errors ([GetLastError](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/errhandlingapi/nf-errhandlingapi-getlasterror)), GUI applications ([WM_QUIT](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/winmsg/wm-quit)) and more. The newly stabilized `ExitCode` provides an excellent fit for propagating these values, because `std::process::exit` does not run deconstructors which can result in errors. However, `ExitCode` currently only implements `From<u8> for ExitCode`, which disallows the full range of `i32`/`u32` values. This pull requests attempts to address that shortcoming by providing windows specific extensions that accept a `u32` value (which covers all possible `HRESULTS` and Win32 errors) analog to [ExitStatusExt::from_raw](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/os/windows/process/trait.ExitStatusExt.html#tymethod.from_raw).
This was also intended by the original Stabilization rust-lang#93840 (comment) as pointed out by ``@eggyal`` in rust-lang#97914 (comment):
> Issues around platform specific representations: We resolved this issue by changing the return type of report from i32 to the opaque type ExitCode. __That way we can change the underlying representation without affecting the API, letting us offer full support for platform specific exit code APIs in the future.__
[Emphasis added]
### API
```rust
/// Windows-specific extensions to [`process::ExitCode`].
///
/// This trait is sealed: it cannot be implemented outside the standard library.
/// This is so that future additional methods are not breaking changes.
#[stable(feature = "windows_process_exit_code_from", since = "1.63.0")]
pub trait ExitCodeExt: Sealed {
/// Creates a new `ExitCode` from the raw underlying `u32` return value of
/// a process.
#[stable(feature = "windows_process_exit_code_from", since = "1.63.0")]
fn from_raw(raw: u32) -> Self;
}
#[stable(feature = "windows_process_exit_code_from", since = "1.63.0")]
impl ExitCodeExt for process::ExitCode {
fn from_raw(raw: u32) -> Self {
process::ExitCode::from_inner(From::from(raw))
}
}
```
### Misc
I apologize in advance if I misplaced any attributes regarding stabilzation, as far as I learned traits are insta-stable so I chose to make them stable. If this is an error, please let me know and I'll correct it. I also added some additional machinery to make it work, analog to [ExitStatus](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/process/struct.ExitStatus.html#).
