Tracking Issue for `CommandExt::desktop` for Windows

The feature gate for the issue is #![feature(windows_process_extensions_desktop)].

This is a tracking issue for a new desktop builder method of the Windows-specific CommandExt extension trait.

It will add the ability to configure the lpDesktop field of the STARTUPINFOW struct before calling CreateProcessW.

     fn desktop<S: AsRef<OsStr>>(&mut self, desktop: S) -> &mut process::Command;
}
